I love this!! I added black beans to the salad. I used less olive oil and added a little bit of apple cider vinegar to the dressing. It was fantastic!
So tasty!. I grilled corn on cob slightly charred and used that. Otherwise Followed recipe except for using red onion ( didn’t have white). Really yummy! Big hit with our grilled tuna steaks!
I love this salad! I like to roast the corn, grill or frying pan..
I just added basil and Juice of 1 fresh lime. No cilantro but will try
I love all the fresh flavors in this. But the olive oil is over powering
Wonderful! I added a bit of Lime zest and a touch more cilantro. Changed to red onions and served it cold.
Delicious. Used shallots based on someone else’s review and frozen corn. Could’ve used less oil.
Summer in a bowl. I used fresh corn (never canned), fresh oregano since this was the herb I had on hand. A perfect side dish to turkey burgers I had on the grill.
These ingredients are just lovely together! I blanched fresh shocked corn instead of using grilled. I peeled and seeded my tomatoes first and diced them more finely than shown in the photo. Delicious! Will make it again, but next time I will skip the olive oil as it seemed to weigh down the fresh, light taste just a bit.
beautiful summer (or wish it was summer) salad!
I prefer frozen corn to canned. I added some lime zest and only 2 tablespoons of olive oil. We love this salad, especially on a hot afternoon.
I made this with my Tuesday crew and they loved it ….I used a can of Ro*Tel Mexican style diced tomatoes and I made it the next time with all fresh ingredients…..it’s great both ways….I prefer fresh ingredients….
This salad is always a hit! I skip the jalepeno because my kids don’t like spicy, and it’s still great. Making it for my church picnic today!
I thought this was a fantastic salad. A perfect side for any Mexican meal. I used red onions, and added just a pinch of cumin to the dressing, and used frozen corn. Can’t wait to make this again.
Made this with our homegrown/canned corn.. the only change I made was to cut the olive oil amount in half. Delicious.. I will make it again.
Its has a healthy fresh taste. Next time I will omit the oil, it is good enough without it.
7.10.17 Corn and tomatoes are in season right now, so I cut my corn off of the cob rather than using canned corn. I actually forgot to add the olive oil. When I realized that, I tasted the salad, and just left it out because I thought it tasted so darn fresh and was simply spot on tasty as is. Omitting the oil also had to drop the calories and fat (which weren’t bad to begin with I will say)! We just loved this, and this was the perfect side kick to some grilled chicken.
It was delicious. My family loved it!
Super bland! How much salt should one use?
I also prefer frozen corn. Tastes fresher. I add a little extra lime juice cause we like it that way. Great salad that gets requested every time we get together.
Very good dish, I used fresh corn that I grilled first and added some fresh minced garlic, because, why not? Also skipped the cilantro because I’m not a fan but followed the recipe besides that… Will make again! Maybe add some black beans next time…
