1 cup corn kernels (fresh or grilled)
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 avocado, sliced
1/3 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
2 tsp hot sauce
1 tsp honey
Instructions

2. Grill shrimp over medium-high heat for 2–3 minutes per side until pink and lightly charred.
3. In a separate bowl, combine corn, cherry tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, and lime juice. Toss and set aside.
4. For the sauce, whisk together Greek yogurt or sour cream, hot sauce, honey, and a splash of lime juice. Adjust heat or sweetness to taste.

6. Drizzle with creamy sauce and garnish with cilantro or lime wedges before serving.
Notes
Use medium to large shrimp (21-25 count) for best texture on the grill.
Fresh lime juice is key for brightening all the flavors.
To make it spicier, add extra hot sauce or a pinch of chili flakes to the sauce.
