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.
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.
Place a craft sailboard in each one and they’re ready to serve!

Now this is my kind of party food. I much prefer fresh and tasty to fried any day! Don’t worry I was in my 20’s too before I ever tasted my first avocado my mum never had them in the house as she didn’t like them…. crazy I know 😀

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

Pamela – these are adorable! And such a brilliant appetizer! Love the mexican corn salad in them and the no-clean up bowls or boats should I say!
Pamela says
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)
