1/2 avocado, diced
1/3 cup diced cantaloupe
1/3 cup cooked black beans
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Salt to taste
Black pepper to taste

Remove kernels from the corn ear using a sharp knife or corn stripper, working carefully over a cutting board to catch all the kernels.
In a medium bowl, combine the corn kernels, diced cantaloupe, avocado, and black beans.
Drizzle the fresh lime juice over the mixture and toss gently to combine, being careful not to break up the avocado pieces.
Season the salsa with salt and black pepper to your taste preference.

Arrange 2 precooked shrimp on top of each portion and serve immediately.
