One of the easiest, tastiest summer salads I know. The combination of sweet corn, juicy tomatoes, crunchy almonds and tangy lime can't be beat. You can add avocado, herbs like basil or chives, or cheese (feta, cotija and queso fresco are all nice) but it is excellent as is. There's no need to cook the corn but if you have the grill on, the salad is also amazing with charred corn. Either way, you will want to make this salad all summer long.
Ingredients:
4 ears of corn
1 c cherry tomatoes
1/3 c almonds
juice of 1 lime (2 Tbs)
2 Tbs. olive oil
1 tsp salt
pepper
Cut corn kernels off cob into a bowl. Cut cherry tomatoes in half. Roughly chop almonds. Toss everything with lime juice, olive oil, salt and pepper. Enjoy.
