Happy Monday!
Monday feels a lot better when you don’t have to get up early, pack lunches, find shoes, etc, etc, etc.
I hope you had a fabulous weekend. We are all sunburned and exhausted and that is a sign of a good weekend in my book.
Yesterday I went on a crazy hunt for a beach chair. Like one of those that lays down flat – you know what I mean? I’ve been on the lookout for weeks and no one has them. I mean, I get that we aren’t near a beach but I can’t be the only one that likes to lay out in my backyard with a icy drink, right?
Anyway, I finally found one and spent the rest of the day outside, reading in the sun. It was amazing.
I took a break and made this Grilled Corn Guacamole and then ate all of it. The entire batch. No shame.
Y’all know I love guacamole anyway but it’s extra amazing with some grilled sweet summer corn mixed in.

- 2 ripe avocados
- 2 ears fresh grilled corn
- 1 jalapeno seeds removed
- 1/4 cup finely diced red onion
- juice of 1 lime
- salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro chopped
-
In a mixing bowl, mash avocado until it's the consistency you enjoy in guacamole. I like mine chunky. Use a knife to scrape the corn off the cob. Add to the avocado along with the jalapeno, red onion, lime juice, salt, and cilantro and use a rubber spatula to combine.

Serve immediately.

This guacamole is a total WIN in my book! I’m obsessed with grilled corn and throwing it into the guac mix just could not be wrong! I seriously just need a spoon for this. ;)

Sounds like you had the perfect relaxing Sunday to me! I love guacamole and grilled corn, so you know I will be whipping up this recipe very soon and many times!

I’m so glad you finally found your beach chair!! Believe it or not I’ve never had corn and guac together, but it looks amazing! I will certainly be trying this with an cold drink while laying in MY beach chair this summer!!

I always throw a little roasted corn in my guac, but I’ve never gone full out corn guacamole like this and it’s about time I did! Pinning!
Kacey @ The Cookie Writer says
This is a great idea to use up leftover corn (though, in our house, that never happens!) :)
Michelle @ A Dish of Daily Life says
I would have absolutely no problem eating the entire batch either. And a day like that sounds lovely. Of course it’s raining here. :(

Mmmm my husband and I have been guacamole obsessed for weeks! :) I can only imagine how nice some smoky sweet corn would taste. Mmmm :) Pinned!

Ha! I feel you on the beach chair thing. I grew up near an ocean, moved to Colorado and I said goodbye to anything beach-related! Don’t they realize we love sun too!? Crazies. This is such a great recipe for summer. LOVE that grilled corn! Pinned!

Haha, I’ve been thinking I need to get me a lounger for the deck too! And maybe a bowl of this guac to go alongside :)

Getting a sunburn = a terrible weekend in my book, but I’m glad you had fun. I love guacamole, and this one looks so good. Your photos are always so bright and crisp. Love them!

We love snacking on homemade guacamole! Love the addition of grilled corn!
