🍳 How to cook (1 serving):

Cooking Time: 12 minutesPreperation Time: 5 minutes

Tossing the Salad

Begin by rinsing the lettuce and cucumber under cold water. Pat dry with a paper towel. Chop the lettuce into bite-size pieces and slice the cucumber. In a large bowl, combine the lettuce and cucumber slices. Add the corn kernels to the salad. For extra flavor, you can lightly sauté the corn kernels in a non-stick pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes before adding them to the salad. This step is optional.

Preparing the Protein

While the vegetables are being prepared, place two eggs in a saucepan and cover them with enough water to submerge them completely. Bring the water to a boil, then lower the heat and allow the eggs to simmer for 9 to 12 minutes, depending on your preference for doneness. Once cooked, remove the eggs from the water and let them cool before peeling and slicing them. Thinly slice the deli meat. If you prefer, you can also quickly sear the slices in a non-stick pan over medium heat for a minute on each side to add a bit of texture and flavor. However, this step is entirely optional.

Assembling the Plate

Arrange the salad mixture on a large plate or bowl. Add the sliced hard-boiled eggs and deli meat to the salad. Then, slice the avocado just before serving to prevent it from browning. Add the fresh avocado slices to the plate, beautifully complementing the other ingredients. For an extra touch of freshness and flavor, you can sprinkle the plate with your choice of herbs, such as chopped parsley, chives, or cilantro, and a drizzle of olive oil or your favorite salad dressing. Your nutritious and satisfying mixed plate is now ready to serve.
