Summer Corn Salad with Tomatoes, Peppers, & Feta
Anika on Thursday, July 9
I love salad. And when it’s hot out, there’s little better than a cool, refreshing, colorful, and crunchy salad. This is a great recipe for when you aren’t really in the mood for leafy greens, but want a veggie-laden salad that takes advantage of your summer produce.
Ingredients
Vinaigrette
- Olive oil
- Apple cider vinegar
- Red wine vinegar
- Lemon juice
- Cumin
- Coriander
- Chile powder
- Smoked paprika
- Garlic powder
- Nutritional yeast
- Turmeric
- Black pepper
- Salt
Substance
- Corn (fresh kernels, thawed frozen, or drained canned)
- Bell pepper, chopped
- Tomatoes, chopped (I used halved cherry tomatoes)
- Feta, crumbled
Prep your vinaigrette by combining the dry and wet ingredients. I usually do this in a Pyrex measuring cup with a whisk. Set aside and prep your veggies. I prefer my tomatoes and bell peppers diced, but you can cut the veggies into whatever size pieces you prefer.
Combine your chopped veggies and corn in a large bowl and stir in your vinaigrette. Toss in your crumbled feta (goat cheese is a great alternative if that’s more your fancy!) and season with a little additional black pepper on top. And ta da! Delicious, crunchy, and oh-so fresh.
