CORN TOMATO SALAD
Have you ever been invited to a BBQ or get together and were asked to bring a side salad to share?? This has happened to me on countless occasions, and for some reason I always get stumped as to which recipe to bring. I love regular green salads but feel like they get soggy fast, so I recently went on the search for another recipe that could be my go-to side dish salad.
I think I found that recipe in this Summer Corn Salad. Now, don’t let the name fool you – it doesn’t need to be summer to make it but it’s especially perfect for summer time. It’s light, flavorful and delicious!!
One of the main reasons we love this salad is because it takes less than 15 minutes to make. It’s full of corn, basil, cucumber, feta and tomatoes – all of which are some of my favorite ingredients. It was loved by the entire family and was gone as quick as it came out. It will definitely be a new favorite, especially if you love corn.
PERFECT FOR BBQ’S AND GET TOGETHERS
Putting it together is as simple as you’d think. You start by cooking the corn until it’s slightly tender. Let the corn cool completely (you can chill it in the fridge) and then add the tomatoes, cucumber and basil. Right before serving, add the oil mixture, feta cheese, and Italian dressing and toss!
This recipe is perfect for making ahead if you’re planning a BBQ or gathering and don’t want to worry about having to make a fresh salad right beforehand. You can combine all the veggies ahead of time, and then just add the dressing when you’re ready to serve at your party!
Love the flavor of this corn salad recipe!! And I love even more just how simple it is. As always, you can easily change this up by leaving out or adding any of your favorite ingredients. We loved it how it was but may add beans next time just because I know they’d be a great addition.
