I have been dreaming of this salad for weeks patiently awaiting the local corn harvest to be ready. I had to do a big grocery shop the other week after being away on vacation and to my joyous delight there was a massive box of fresh local "peaches and cream" corn at the health food store!!
The secret to this salad is fresh, crisp, juicy, local corn.
Do not try this recipe with frozen corn, it just won't be nearly as good! Okay now that we got that out of the way, let's talk about what else we have in this wonderful salad.

Be sure to use fresh herbs too because they are full of flavour and beneficial phytonutrients. As for the dressing, I like to keep things simple, so just add some lime juice, sea salt and a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil.

All food has a vibrational energy to it. This salad in particular has high vibes. You'll know what I mean when take your first juicy forkful of it!

If you want to make this salad a meal, just add some protein to it. You could either add the optional chickpeas in the recipe or serve it with the Orange Mint Salmon, the flavours are very complementary.

Made the salad for our dinner tonight. Of course I had to taste test it along the way and it is delicious. Going to add some goat cheese and olives too. Kim
