Tips
6

Thawed frozen corn, or tinned corn, can be drained and used in place of fresh. Skip boiling and drizzle the olive oil into a skillet over high-heat. Add corn, and cook until warmed through and starting to char.
Substitute toast with 4 small tortillas, if preferred.
The skin of a Hass avocado changes colour as it ripens, from green to purple-black when ready to eat.
