- For the best flavor, use ripe avocados that give slightly when gently pressed.
- Toast the whole-wheat bread in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 10 minutes, or until it becomes golden and crispy, to make homemade croutons.
- For extra crunch, add a handful of chopped nuts or seeds, such as almonds or sunflower seeds.
- If you prefer a bit of a spice kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the dressing.
- To keep the avocado from browning, toss it in a bit of lemon juice immediately after cutting.
- Allow the salad to sit for a few minutes after mixing to let the flavors meld together.
This avocado salad with croutons and sweet corn offers a delightful combination of textures and flavors that is sure to please any palate.
