Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 ears fresh corn
  • 1-1 1/2 cups grape tomatoes (halved)
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese
  • 3 tablespoons red onion (finely minced)
  • 1/4 cup flat-leaf parsley (minced)
  • 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2-3 /4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Method
 

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Peel the corn and cook for 3 minutes in the boiling water.
  2. Rinse the cooked corn with cool water then pat dry.
  3. Slice the corn off the cob into a bowl.
  4. Add the grape tomatoes, feta cheese, red onion, parsley, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper to the bowl with the corn and toss to combine.
  5. Refrigerate until ready to serve. The salad can be prepared up to 4 hours before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

- For the freshest flavor, use corn that's in season. If fresh corn isn't available, frozen corn can be used – simply thaw and drain well.
- Don't overcook the corn; 3 minutes in boiling water is perfect to keep it crisp. - Taste and adjust the seasoning! You might want more salt, pepper, or a touch more vinegar for extra zing.
- Store any leftover corn salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors actually deepen overnight!
