Method
 

  1. Start by slicing your ripe avocados in half, removing the pit, and scooping the green goodness into a mixing bowl. Mash avocados with lime juice and salt until creamy. Set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine corn kernels, Cotija cheese, mayonnaise, chili powder, cumin, garlic, and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and drizzle with olive oil. Toast slices of bread until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  4. Spread a generous layer of avocado on each slice of toast, top with a scoop of corn mixture, drizzle with olive oil, and garnish with cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.

This dish is best enjoyed fresh, but the corn mixture can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
