Vegan Grilled Corn Salad

Ingredients needed:

2 Ears of corn

1 Red bell pepper, sliced into small sections

1 avocado, sliced into small sections

1 Cup cherry tomatoes, halved

(Roughly) 3 cups salad greens (use can also substitute arugula)

1 1/2 cups chickpeas (rinse and drain)

For the dressing:

Juice from one lime

1 tbsp agave

3 tbsp olive oil

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Remove the corn on the cob from the husks. Coat with olive oil and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Place on a medium-high heat grill for 5-7 minutes. Flip them over and grill for an additional 5-7 minutes.

While the corn is grilling, prepare the salad. Add the salad greens to a large bowl and top with the red bell pepper, halved cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, and chickpeas.

In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, agave, olive oil paprika, and salt and pepper to make the dressings.

Once the corn is cooked, remove it from the grill. Hold it vertically at the top with one hand. With the other hand, slice off the kernels in a downward motion. Add the kernels to the salad. Toss to combine and top with the dressing.
