Corn Guacamole with Tomatoes and Lime

My husband and I lived in California for 5 years and I remember eating avocados almost everyday! They’re so good for you and I just love the smooth and creamy texture. I would always make a simple guacamole dip along with some veggie sticks as my midday snack. For this recipe, I wanted to amp it up a bit by adding in some sweet yellow corn, red cherry tomatoes and lime juice. So delicious!

This guacamole has an extra citrusy kick from the juice of two limes, perfectly complimenting the sweet corn. Serve this delicious guac with a healthy side of sweet potato and pita chips.
