    Loved this recipe. I only had some Trader Joe’s frozen roasted corn so I used that, I also had some leftover quinoa and a handful of grape tomatoes that I needed to use up so I threw those in there too. It is a very flexible recipe and the dressing is amazing.

    This was a wonderful dish. I agree really great dressing, I increased the corn to three cobs and dry roasted the corn on a large cast iron pan to cook it a get a good char on the corn which enhanced the flavor of the corn in the dish. It worked really well. Used canned organic black beans and it was great. We loved the way the avocado finished the dish and letting the salad marinate in the dressing overnight is essential. Highly recommended.

    Wow, this dressing was amazing! I made this into more of a traditional salad by tossing with spinach (and did not need extra dressing, even though I used a lot of spinach). Like another commenter here, I eliminated the cilantro as my partner is not a fan, but did not miss it - the flavors were wonderful even without. I think next time I might try canned or frozen corn since it was a bit of a fuss to prep the corn fresh. But definitely will be repeating this!

    I used frozen corn (cooked in the microwave), half the onion, no bell pepper. Half the dressing was just right. I made the dressing by hand, finely chopping the chipotle chile (with seeds removed). Delicious!

    Even with no avocado on hand & an aversion to (and so elimination of) cilantro, this was a great corn dish. I cut everything except the corn back by 1/2 for the 2 of us. I wanted something warm so I sauteed the onion & bell pepper and then added the kernels to the hot pan (rather than boil the cobs) and also added hot peppers & green onion with the black beans. The vinaigrette (lovely!) was poured over this hot mixture, some fresh basil went in and we devoured all of it.
