    • Drizzle the lime dressing over the corn and avocado mixture. Toss gently to combine and coat everything with the dressing.
    • Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
    • Let the salad sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
    • Serve the grilled corn and avocado salad as a refreshing and vibrant Whole30 dish.
