Why this is the best Corn Salad
The Corn Salad comes with an easy to make dressing: red vinegar, olive oil and fresh garlic in my opinion is all it needs to make a great easy dressing that is bursting with flavor.
Vegan bacon bits not only brings a smoky flavor, but also adds a crunchy texture.
Avocado, do I need say more? The creamy and rich texture makes everything better, friends.
