Ingredients
  

  • 4 fresh ears of corn husked
  • 1 small red onion diced
  • 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 can black beans rinsed and drained
  • 2 tomatoes diced
  • 1 red bell pepper diced
  • 2 avocados diced
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup crumbed cotija cheese
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro
  • tostada shells for serving

Instructions
 

  • Grill the corn on a stove top or outdoor grill until charred all around. You can also cook it under a broiler until charred. Allow to cool.
  • Combine the chopped red onion and red wine vinegar in a small bowl. Allow to sit for at least 30 minutes.
  • Cut the corn kernels off the cob and throw them into a large bowl. Toss in the tomatoes, red bell pepper, avocado, black beans and seasonings. Add the onions with only some of the red wine vinegar. Not all of it. Toss to combine. Taste and adjust seasonings (or red wine vinegar) accordingly.
  • Serve on top of store bought tostada shells. Sprinkle with crumbled cotija cheese and fresh cilantro on top. Enjoy!
