Very good - only change I made was to use thawed frozen corn and diced peppers as I didn't have mexicorn on hand. Kids liked it too!

Awesome! Made a 1/2 batch using a full avocado, full can of corn (not mexican corn) and small can of diced chilis. Also sprinkled on dried cilantro. Served it with the Mexican Grilled Chicken recipe on TOH.
