Are you getting tired of serving the same old menu items for your outdoor barbeques? Want to add some panache to your next social gathering? You’re sure to please with corn cakes and avocado salsa – always a crowd pleaser.

All you need to do is pick up some farm fresh ears of corn and ripe avocados from the convenient Perrine’s Produce location of your choice and you will be well on your way to wowing any partakers!

The salsa for this easy and delicious treat is finely diced avocado mixed with chopped tomato and red onion, brightened up with a few squeezes from a lime and seasoned with salt and pepper to taste.

For your corn cakes, mix ¼ cup of flour, a ¼ cup of crumbled Cotija and two beaten eggs. Then, just fold in the kernels from two ears of corn and some chopped scallions. Brown two tablespoon sized scoops and sprinkle with sea salt as they rest on a plate lined with a paper towel to dry. 

Plus, don’t forget that Perrine’s Produces offers a nice selection of fresh herbs for your culinary delight, so grab some cilantro to top things off too! This side dish is as colorful and pretty as it is delicious, a nice deviation from the traditional old barbeque menu items and it goes well with just about everything!

You can thank the Pioneer Woman for that one…although she may add a few more spices, which you can certainly feel free to do if you like to turn up the heat!
