- 3/4 cup cilantro, chopped
- 3-4 scallions, sliced
- 1 Hass avocado, small diced, optional

Directions
For the dressing
STEP 1:
Whisk together all ingredients and set aside.
For the salad
STEP 1:
In boiling water, cook ramen noodles til al dente, about 2 minutes. The noodles will absorb the dressing, so it is important that they are al dente. Once done, rinse under cold water to keep them from cooking further. Set aside in a medium bowl.
STEP 2:
In a cast iron skillet set under medium-high heat, char your corn, turning every few minutes to get all sides. Let cool for a few minutes before cutting the kernels off.
STEP 3:
Pour the dressing over noodles and mix til noodles are coated. Add in your corn, cabbage, cilantro, scallions, avocado, and season to taste. Enjoy!
