Corn and Tomato Salad




After this past Monday's Memorial Day BBQ, we found ourselves with some extra cooked corn on the cob. (This recipe will work great with a drained can of corn too). A light fresh salad is the perfect way to use it up!


Ingredients
1/4 t garlic powder
1/4 t salt
1/4 t sugar
2 T white wine vinegar
2 T olive oil
corn, sliced off of cob or from a drained can
tomatoes, diced
green onions, thinly sliced
english cucumber, diced




Mix together garlic powder, salt, and sugar.

Mix in white wine vinegar.  Then whisk mixture while drizzling in olive oil.  Mix well until emulsified.
Our left over corn on the cob from Memorial Day weekend.
Corn on the cob no more.  Perfect for denture wearers, babies, or a lovely summer salad!

Sliced up green onions.  I used mainly the white parts.  The green parts were a little...peaked.

Dice the English cucumber.


Dice the tomatoes.  I had grape tomatoes so I quartered them.  Roma tomatoes would be great for this salad.  If you are going to use the big beefsteak tomatoes, I would squeeze out the seeds and extra juice before dicing.

Delicious, fresh, healthy.  Perfect for a summer side.  Enjoy!
