With summertime comes backyard barbecues and pool parties. I always enjoy having a light and simple side dish to share with others. This corn salad is filled with grape tomatoes, red onion, basil, and of course corn. It pairs well with burgers, fajitas, or whatever you might be grilling up. Also, you can make this salad ahead of time (I recommend at least 3 hours and no more than a day before serving). Enjoy!
Ingredients
- One bag of frozen corn (for a crowd I recommend a large bag, about 80 oz.)
- 1 small red onion or half of a large red onion, diced
- 1 pint grape tomatoes, sliced in half
- A handful of fresh basil, roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Directions
Cook the frozen corn according to the package. Drain once cooked and place in a medium bowl. Add in the red onion, tomatoes, balsamic vinegar. Stir until combined. Next add in the salt and pepper and stir. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if needed. Last add in the basil and toss. Enjoy!
