Summer Corn Salad
By MCFM Nutrition Interns
Ingredients
- 4 ears of sweet corn, raw
- 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
- 1⁄4 cup diced red onion
- 1⁄4 cup chopped basil
- 3 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
- 2 1⁄2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 1 1⁄2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt

Instructions
To remove corn from the cob: Stand corn upright and use a sharp knife to carefully cut off kernels. Compost the cobs and place kernels in a medium bowl with the tomatoes, onions, basil and cheese. Toss until well-combined.
In a small bowl or sealed mason jar, whisk or shake together remaining ingredients. Pour over vegetables and toss until well-coated. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if desired.
