My Favorite Summer Salad/QUICK
I obtained this recipe when I attended a 5 day vegetarian conference in Johnstown, PA. It quickly became my favorite. I've made changes to accomodate my love of limes.
Sweet Corn and Tomato Salad with Fresh Cilantro
5 ears fresh corn, husked
1 lb. plum tomatoes, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
3/4 cup finely chopped red onion
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
juice of 1 lime
Cook corn in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, about 5 minutes. Drain; cool to room temperature.
Cut corn kernels from cobs. Transfer corn to a large bowl.
Add remaining ingredients; toss to blend.
Season salad to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature, tossing occasionally.)
As a main dish, protein enriched, add 1 can of drained and rinsed black beans. YUMMY!
