Summer Corn Salad

September 1, 2020 by Judy Lyness 4 Comments

Summer Corn Salad

What do you bring to a social distance brunch? This summer corn salad! I wanted to bring something crisp, light, crunchy, and let’s face it, easy. It turned out to be a huge hit! Not one kernel of corn was left in the bowl.

I wanted to incorporate the smokiness of grilled corn, yet my grill had been brought to the curb a year ago. So I shucked the corn and placed the ears on the top of the stove to singe them a bit. That did the trick!

Hope you enjoy it as much as my friends and I did.

    Great minds! I just posted on a corn salad as well. I love that you can put just about anything with the corn, and season how you like. So versatile. Great recipe.

    Beautiful! We ate corn last night with zucchini – Calabacitas with home made tamales. The corn is so sweet right now.
