Grilled salad
- 3 fresh ears of sweet corn, large husks removed, leaving only the thin inner husks
- Half a red cabbage, cut into quarters
- 4 green onions
- 2 poblano peppers
- Vegetable oil, for greasing

Brush the corn, cabbage, and green onions with vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the corn, cabbage, green onions, and poblano peppers until charred: 4-5 minutes per side for the corn and onions, 10 minutes per side for the poblano peppers (turning them), and 10-15 minutes per side for the cabbage. Grill the strawberries on a grill rack or skewers for 1-2 minutes per side. Let the vegetables and strawberries cool.

- Once the vegetables have cooled, shred the cabbage. Remove the skin, seeds, and membranes from the poblano peppers and cut them into thin strips. Chop the green onions. Then, cut the kernels from the corn cobs over a towel. Place all the vegetables and strawberries in a large bowl. Drizzle with the avocado dressing and toss to combine. Season with additional salt and pepper, if desired.
