We’re well into California Avocado season and I couldn’t be happier! I’m loving these Fire Roasted Corn and Avocado Bites for a delicious snack or appetizer!
It’s no secret that I love me some avocado. Especially when it’s mashed together with a little lime juice and salt, then topped with a delicious fire roasted corn, pepper and black bean salsa and served in a crunchy chip!
These little bites disappeared super quick in our house.
Let me tell you why they disappeared so quickly.
My kids.
They are eating me out of house and home! Holy cow.
They are never ending pits of hunger.
I get it though. They need food to grow. yada yada yada…
I just wish they would take a breather every once in a while.
Good thing they love avocados. These bites are one of my favorite snacks to prepare for them because it keeps them full (for a little while at least 😉 )
These little bites are the perfect transition into Spring and all the way through Summer.
I found a can of fire roasted corn at the grocery store, but you can definitely grill your own corn and use it for this recipe. Either way will work marvelously!
Same goes for the fire roasted red bell pepper. I used the jarred kind, but making them on  your own is definitely an option. I just went the whole quick and easy route, cause you know that’s how I roll.
You’re going to love these!

Funny, my kids are endless pits too!! And my 2 1/2 year old eats whole avocados at a time (diced up of course). These little bites are looking pretty awesome to me!
