vegan mexican corn on the cobHey guys! How have you been? It’s full BLOWN Summer here. Hot, beautiful and gorgeous Summer. This is my first (full) Summer I’ve spent in Toronto in almost 6 years and it feels good to rediscover the city during these hot months.

I’ve talked on the blog before about balance (with a capital B!!). Balance is something I’m always working towards and working on. It’s so easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Lately, I’ve felt like I blink and it’s already Friday – the weeks have just been flying by. I’ve made a promise to myself this Summer to make more time for myself to throw myself into the things I LOVE like running, making recipes, sharing recipes with you guys and simply enjoying the lovely Summer here in Toronto. Here’s to continually finding and living that balance.

But now let’s talk about this Vegan Mexican Roasted Corn. Holy moly is it super, tasty and it’s tossed in LOTS of avocado. YUM.

This Mexican-inspired street corn has ALL my favorite flavors of Summer with lots of cilantro, refreshing tang from the lime and sooo much flava from the smoked paprika. If you haven’t started cooking with smoked paprika yet it is time to start – it is definitively one of my most used spices in the kitchen. I can’t get enough of that smokey goodness.

And this Vegan Mexican Street Corn could not be easier to make. Roast your corn, toss it straight from the grill in the thick avocado dressing and devour!! This Roasted Avocado Corn is such a fun side to serve at cook-outs and barbecues all Summer long. And if you do make this Vegan Mexican Corn at home, I love hearing about it!!
