Lighten Up!

Want something light, tasty, flavorful, and healthy to boot?  Then make this delicious grilled corn salad.  It would be a great side dish to an early summer meal, or as a meal on its own!  I decided to make this today to use the corn that has been being neglected in my refrigerator.

So here it is... Grilled Corn Summer Salad!

Ingredients:

4 ears, husked and cleaned grilled corn (I lightly brushed my with olive oil and seasoned with salt and pepper)

1/4-1/2 diced red onion

2 large carrots, peeled, drizzled with evoo, s&p and grilled (dice after grilling)

1 cup quartered mini heirloom or grape tomatoes

1 avocado, diced

1-2 cups spinach, chopped

Dressing:  

The juice of 1/2 a large lemon

1 1/2 T. red wine vinegar

1/4 cup EVOO

S&P.

Method (so easy):

Grill corn and carrots, being sure to turn and check often so not to burn.

Chop and prepare the remaining ingredients and place in a medium sized bowl.

Check your corn & carrots!

Make dressing.

Using a wide bowl, cut corn kernels from the cob and place with the rest of the salad.

Drizzle the dressing over the salad.

Serve warm or refrigerate.

Enjoy!

You will LOVE this salad!  It was amazing!

Peace, Love, & Veggies
