You can make a refreshing salad with what you have on hand.My husband isn't a fan of vinegary stuff, so I thought I should make it fruity and he loved it.If zucchini isn't in season, you could use cucumbers This time, I served it with a bit of red and yellow peppers.Adjust the amount of vinegar and honey to taste.

I saw a recipe for grapefruit salad in the newspaper and I made my own version with watercress! It depends on the size of the grapefruit but use roughly the same amount of olive oil as the grapefruit juice, and then adjust according to your taste. If it's a big grapefruit, you could use half of the grapefruit for the flesh and the other half for the juice. (Recipe by yunachi30)

This salad screams summer with fresh sweet corn, cucumbers, and tomatoes from your garden or the farmers market. It won't last long in your fridge once you taste it but it will keep for several days (especially if you avoid salting the vegetables when you add your dressing). Use as a stand alone salad or pair with fish or chicken, great as a salsa for fish tacos. This fresh, healthy salad will help with these hot, hot days! Enjoy!

Carrots are great for your health and boost the immune system. Grapefruit helps relieve stress and prevents your skin from ageing. Tomatoes use anti-oxidation to help with anti-aging. I made this fruity and easy to eat carrot salad with a combination of ingredients that ladies will love.This garlic paste doesn't leave any after smell so it's very useful to have for cooking. Of course you can also use regular grated or tubed garlic. Recipe by tink

This is a great summer dish for grilling, super easy, fast and delicious!

If your corn is exceptionally sweet, you can use the kernels raw, and you'll have an even fresher, crisper salad to enjoy in less time. But sauteing the corn does bring out a different flavor and texture, and each variation is worth trying at least once.If you're going to saute your corn, I suggest you do that first, set the corn aside in your salad bowl to cool, give it a couple of stirs or tosses to release some of the heat, and then do your knifework on the rest of the ingredients while the corn cools.And you already know I'm not such a stickler for upscale ingredients, but if you can get your hands on some sweet, flavorful heirloom tomatoes, they really do make the salad better.If you'd like to give it a slightly more complex flavor, some optional spices that would work well individually in this salad in small amounts (1/8 to 1/4 teaspoonful): cumin, chipotle, smoked paprika, coriander, or even a little curry powder.
