A vibrant and fresh summer corn salad with sweet corn, juicy vegetables, and a zesty vinaigrette, perfect for gatherings or as a light meal.
Ingredients
- 4 cobs cobs of corn
- 2 cups grape tomatoes
- 1 cup cucumbers
- 2 green onions
- 1 bell pepper Chopped
- 1 cup crumbled goat cheese
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic Minced
- 1 Tablespoon fresh parsley Finely chopped
- 10 fresh basil leaves Chopped

- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Whisk together the vinaigrette ingredients in a bowl: olive oil, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, minced garlic, parsley, basil, honey, salt, and pepper. Let this sit for at least an hour to allow flavors to blend.
- Peel the corn cobs and remove any silk. Brush the corn with olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Place the corn on a grill over medium heat. Grill for about 12 minutes, turning occasionally until nicely charred and tender.
- Once the corn is cool enough to handle, carefully cut the kernels off the cobs and set them aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the grilled corn kernels, halved grape tomatoes, diced cucumbers, sliced green onions, chopped bell pepper, and crumbled goat cheese.
- Pour the prepared vinaigrette over the salad mixture and toss until well coated.
- Serve the summer corn salad right away and enjoy the fresh flavors.
Notes
- For the best flavor, always use fresh corn.
- You can customize the salad with other veggies or proteins as desired.
