Pick those garden tomatoes

The tomatoes are going crazy in our garden right now! I love going out and seeing all of the plump tomatoes on the vines. With the bounty of our garden I wanted to find some recipes to use all of our juicy tomatoes. Nothing compares to FRESH tomatoes!! This is one of our very favorite family recipes.

Crunchy and creamy textures

The textures of the crunchy tomatoes and corn are perfect with the creamy avocados and tangy lemon dressing.

Lemon dressing

The citrus lemon dressing gives the salad a tangy, zippy flavor!

Perfect Summer salad

This salad is perfect to make in the summer with fresh tomatoes, corn and avocados. But you can also make it any time of they year using canned corn too!

It tastes even better the next day!

Put your salad in the fridge overnight. You will be amazed at how the flavors get even better.

Make it for a BBQ

You can add chicken and it makes a wonderful dinner. Or make it for a summer party or BBQ. It will be gone in minutes!
