- Add the garlic, olive oil, lime juice, rice vinegar, kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to the food processor. Pulse 1–2 times, just until combined.2 cloves garlic, 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, Juice of 1 lime, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, ½ teaspoon kosher salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- Place the corn, diced avocado, and tomatoes in a large mixing bowl.1 ½ cups fresh or frozen corn kernels, 2 avocado, 3 beefsteak tomatoes
- Optional but recommended: If there is excess liquid in the food processor, carefully drain some of it off before adding the vegetable mixture to the bowl. This helps keep the dip from becoming watery, especially if using very juicy tomatoes.
- Add the vegetable mixture to the bowl and gently stir until everything is evenly combined.
- Serve immediately with tortilla chips, or refrigerate for 15–20 minutes to let the flavors meld before serving.Tortilla chips
