Guacamole with Charred Corn and Feta

Holy Guacamole, this is super duper delicious.  It's makes me giddy.  This has just taken an ordinary Guac to a whole new level.
I made this one night expecting to share it with 3 gals...there were only 2 of us and we ate the whole thing, happily.  It's creamy, crunchy, slightly salty, bright.  The perfect snack, app, meal if you will.
Using frozen corn is perfectly fine for this but by all means, when fresh corn is in season, use it.  Grill it for a smokier flavour.  I guarantee you'll love this.  It's fancy schmancy Guacamole.



Charred Corn Guacamole with Feta

1/2 cup frozen Corn or 2 ears
3 ripe Avocados
1 Green Onion, finely sliced
1/2 Jalapeno, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1/2 lime, juiced
1 small tomato, finely chopped
1/4 cup crumbled Feta Cheese
Salt and Pepper to taste

In a dry non-stick pan, toast the corn over medium heat, stirring occasionally making sure not to burn it.  Or, if using fresh corn, grill it, then cut the kernels away.
In a bowl combine all of the ingredients, saving half the feta to sprinkle on top.
