Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh corn kernels (about 4 ears of corn)

1 cup diced tomatoes

1/2 cup finely chopped red onion

1 medium jalapeño, seeded and finely diced

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Juice of 2 limes

1/2 teaspoon cumin

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup diced avocado (optional)

8 small cones (store-bought or homemade tortilla cones)

Lime wedges and additional cilantro for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare Corn: If using fresh corn, boil the ears for about 3-5 minutes, then cool and slice off the kernels. If using frozen corn, thaw and drain.

    Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn, diced tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño, and chopped cilantro.

      Season: Squeeze in the lime juice and add cumin, salt, and pepper. Gently fold the mixture until well combined. If desired, fold in the diced avocado for creaminess.

        Assemble Cones: Carefully spoon the corn salsa into each cone, filling them generously but not overflowing.

          Serve: Arrange the filled cones on a platter. Garnish with lime wedges and sprinkle additional cilantro on top for a pop of color.

            Enjoy: Serve immediately for the freshest taste, or chill briefly before serving if desired.
