A vibrant and refreshing salad that combines sweet corn, crisp cucumbers, and cherry tomatoes with a creamy dressing, feta cheese, and cilantro.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh corn kernels (or substitute with canned corn)
  • 1 medium cucumber (English cucumbers are recommended)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes (Grape tomatoes can be substituted)
  • 1/2 medium red onion (or use green onions for a milder taste)
  • 1 cup feta cheese (can substitute with goat cheese or omit)
  • 1/4 cup cilantro (can omit if not preferred)
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise (Greek yogurt can be used for a lighter option)
  • 1/3 cup sour cream (can substitute with more Greek yogurt)
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice (lemon juice serves as a good substitute)
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder (adjust to preferred heat level)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the fresh corn kernels, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped red onion.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, and chili powder until smooth.
  3. Mix the creamy dressing into the bowl of fresh vegetables until they are evenly coated.
  4. Sprinkle in the feta cheese and cilantro, gently folding them in to avoid breaking the cheese.
  5. Season the salad with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the chili powder based on your desired heat level.
  6. Chill the salad for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld before serving.

Notes

For a lighter option, use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise. Consider adding smoked paprika or cayenne for extra flavor.
