This is the most delicious summer salad. I feel spoiled–not deprived–when I eat this simple salad.

olive oil

kosher salt

pepper

1 package grape tomatoes, halved

Directions for the grilled corn and asparagus:

1. Shuck the corn.

2. Slather the corn and asparagus with a generous amount of olive oil, salt and pepper.

3. Grill on a medium high, turning once they begin to brown. Once the corn and asparagus have finished, allow to cool.

4. Take the corn off the cob and cut the asparagus on a bias.

TIP: The corn gets sweeter as you cook it, so don’t be afraid to add a little color to it!

To finish:

1. Combine the cooked corn, cooked asparagus, avocados, and grape tomatoes into a large bowl.  Add the dressing and mix well.
