Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cup cucumber, diced

1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped

1/2 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 lime, juiced

1/4 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: 1 jalapeño, finely diced (for heat)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Avocados: Cut the avocados in half and gently remove the pit. Using a spoon, scoop out a bit of the flesh to create a larger cavity for the filling. Set aside the scooped flesh for later use.

    Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, red onion, corn, and chopped cilantro. If you like a little heat, add the finely diced jalapeño. Stir well to combine.

      Mix the Creamy Dressing: In a separate bowl, combine the Greek yogurt (or sour cream), lime juice, olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until smooth. You can also mash a little of the scooped avocado flesh into the dressing for an extra creamy texture.

        Combine Everything: Pour the creamy dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss gently until all the ingredients are well coated.

          Fill the Avocado Boats: Generously spoon the creamy veggie mixture into the hollowed-out avocado halves.

            Garnish and Serve: Optional - garnish with additional cilantro leaves, a sprinkle of lime zest, or a drizzle of olive oil. Serve immediately and enjoy the fresh flavors!
