These Avocado Sailboats Filled With Mexican Corn Salad is a fun recipe that is perfect for parties!



You’ll want some delicious  avocados to start with. 

The first step is cutting each avocado in half and then taking out 1-2 tablespoons of each avocado half so we can scoop more salsa in them.

Mexican Corn Salad

Now we’ll grab our delicious Mexican Corn Salad!

It’s just that easy…start filling each avocado up with the salsa.  I like to cut up a few slices of leftover avocado to add a little bit on top.

      I agree…. this come from a girl who ate a avocado yesterday for lunch (with some arugula on toast – yum).

    Oh my GOD these are so cute! I love them. I think avocados are something that you appreciate as you grow up. When I was a very small child my mom ate avocados and I thought they were disgusting. One day I was very mad at her for some reason and so I called her an avocado, because it was the meanest thing I could think of. She still reminds me of this. Now I love avocados, so it I call someone that it is really a compliment.

      That’s too funny. I, in secret, will start calling people an avocado when I’m angry at them. Thanks for the smile Meghan!

      That’s such a good point about the no-clean up bowls Shashi, I didn’t even think about that because I was too busy eating these sailboats! :D)
