Every Sunday we eat chips and salsa for lunch. It is our little family tradition. I know it may not be the healthiest lunch on the planet, but I don’t care. Family traditions are more important sometimes:) I like to mix up our salsa routine so we don’t get bored. Some of our favorites include: Restaurant Style Salsa, Strawberry Mango Salsa, Pineapple Salsa, Black Bean Corn Salsa, and Peach Salsa.

Last week I made Zucchini, Corn, and Avocado Salsa for our Sunday chips and salsa lunch and it was EPIC! It is my new favorite salsa! And since it has zucchini, corn, and avocado I am considering it a healthy lunch choice. Hey, I am getting my veggies and fruits. It is all about balance!

When I told Josh I wanted to make zucchini salsa for lunch he wasn’t excited. He turned up his nose and said he would make one of our standard salsas for himself. I told him to hold the phone and trust me. He agreed to give it a try.

This salsa screams summer! It also screams EAT ME! I couldn’t wait to get dipping! I had one bite and new it was a winner. I called Josh into the kitchen and gave him a chip. He crunched away and a smile appeared on his face. He loved it! BOOYAH! My salsa was Sunday lunch worthy! I was almost sad I let Josh taste it. I kind of wanted to eat the entire bowl all by myself. I had to show him how good it was though:)

  1. This looks awesome and I want seconds, already! 🙂 Pinned! I made a zucchini and corn salad/salsa earlier this week and it’s one of my fave things I’ve made in awhile!

  2. I love your Sunday lunch tradition! I should start that. You’ve inspired me.
    And, this salsa! YES! I actually mix zucchini and avocado all the time…so with corn? Face plant city. Pinned!

  3. I love salsa and this is a new spin for me! I’m always looking for ways to incorporate all our extra zucchini from the garden.

  4. I love your tradition! that feels like something we could get on board with! This variety looks delicious.

  5. What a fun Sunday lunch idea. I like special events like that, which are small but enhance life. Thank you for sharing. I will agree that this is epic for a salsa. But I am so partial to the ingredients, I might be a wee big prejudiced.

  6. This is definitely my kind of salad: simple, healthy, and easy. Thanks so much for the recipe. Pinning it now!

  7. I made this for two different parties this weekend and recieved RAVE reviews!! So simple and yet so delicious. Thanks for sharing.

  8. I’ve made a salad very similar to this, without the jalapenos, with tomatoes, grilled corn and avocado. Dressing is a lime juice/honey/canola oil mix. This article inspired me to throw some zucchini in there next time!

  9. I am going to make this. I am learning how to cook vegan. This year I am starting a catering business and the audience I want to capture are the vegans and vegetarians as well as the “mainstream”.
