Fresh Sweet Corn Salad
Nena's.cook.nook @cook_17462493
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!

- 1
Get all your ingredients together, and use the counts and measurements in my ingredients list above loosely. If you have more corn or less cucumbers its still a salad :)
- 2
If you are using fresh corn go ahead and blanch it for 5 minutes in boiling salted water, remove from pot to a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking process. After the corn has cooled cut the kernels from the cob using the old bunt cake pan method.
- 3
Then you peel, chop, dice all the veggies you are using. Place in a giant bowl and stir. I roughly peel my home grown cucumbers but if you are using store bought with the wax coating you are going to want to remove all the peeling.
- 4
Put together dressing ingredients or use any store bought vinaigrette style dressing you want. If you are going to eat this all week (as I plan to) avoid adding salt until serving as it will pull moisture from the veggies and all the extra juice ruins the fresh taste. Also store in a flat cassarole style dish to prevent all those juices congregating at the bottom and ruining your presentation. I hope you enjoy!

I am a busy mom who loves to feed my family real food. Food that has ingredients we grow, harvest and sometimes can simply pronounce. My recipes tend to be simple, hearty, and flexible (for those of us that can't make it to the grocery store everyday or budget for a fancy ingredient). Food is a real way to show our family we love them.

Simple Tomato & Sweet Onion Salad
Here in Southern California, we're back to al fresco dining weather, and we like to enjoy it as much a possible.One of our favorite al fresco meals is a wine, cheese, and salumi lunch, and this simple tomato salad made specifically with red wine vinegar is one of my favorite accompaniments. You could totally use another kind of vinegar if you like, but there's just something about the flavor of red wine vinegar that I love in this salad. :)If you can get them, sweet onions like Vidalias or Mayan Sweets are ideal.

Mayo-Free! Sweet Potato and Kabocha Squash Salad
I modified a dish I was served at a friend's house.The firmness of the kabocha and sweet potato differs, so make sure they are cooked by poking a bamboo skewer through before proceeding to Step 3. If they aren't cooked through, add a bit more milk and let it simmer. It should have a pretty loose texture, which is just fine since it will harden as it cools. That being said, the firmness should be to your liking, so adjust the simmer time accordingly. Recipe by Doremiredo

Easy Refreshing Sweet Onion and Tomato Salad
This is a copycat recipe of the tomato salad that a Genghis Khan (BBQ sliced lamb) restaurant serves. My husband, who does not like fresh tomatoes, loved it. And, he said it was better than the one at the restaurant.If you use sweet onions, they should not be too sharp tasting, but if you'd rather not have any sharpness, soak them in water to mellow the flavor. If you have enough time, chill the tomatoes on a plate in the refrigerator until icy cold, then enjoy. Recipe by Momonoyasashiikaori

Sweet Onions and Tuna Japanese Spring Potato Salad
I usually use onions and tuna because I like them stir-fried together. I thought it would be delicious if I used sweet onions and mixed fluffy spring potatoes with soy sauce. That's how it all came about.I added the soy sauce in two batches to enjoy its flavor.I recommend you mix the potatoes when they're hot while making sure not to mash them too much.Please adjust the cooking time for the potatoes since it can vary according to size.You can boil or steam the potatoes instead of microwaving them. For 4 serving. Recipe by creamcrepe

Orange and Sweet Onion Salad
I absolutely love the combination of these flavors. I wanted everyone to try it at least once so I uploaded the recipe here!The oranges I used this time were small, so I used one per person, cut it into half and then sliced them into about 7-8 mm. If you have large oranges, cut them into quarters first.If you don't have sweet onions, use regular onions, soaked in salted water or massaged with a little salt to get rid of the harshness. For 2 servings. Recipe by rie-tin
Simple 5 Minute Sweet Potato Salad
I had this once at a teppanyaki restaurant and it was delicious, so I recreated it!Microwave the sweet potato until it's cooked through but not totally mushy. If serving to adults, season with plenty of wasabi. It's seasoned lightly so children can eat it without problems. It's also good with mustard instead of wasabi. Recipe by Natsutakukaasan

Roasted sweet potato and avocado salad
This is a salad that can be eaten alone or with a lighter main course. The warm roasted sweet potato works well with avocado and any salad ingredients in your fridge. For this recipe I also had some fresh apricots which I peeled, sliced thinly and added. A light sprinkling of Mirin or squeeze of lemon juice is really all the dressing required.
