Steps:
- Prep corn: Remove the husks and stringy fibers from the corn cut/slice the corn off the cob. See this, 3 Mess Free Ways to get Corn of the Cobb, for a quick tutorial. Prep the bell pepper and onion.
- Assemble: In a large mixing bowl, place the arugula, corn, bell pepper and onion. Add the lemon juice, olive oil and salt & pepper. Mix well to combine. Taste for seasoning adding more lemon juice or salt & pepper as needed.
- Serve: Enjoy right away, or let the salad set for about 10 minutes (you can also chill it if you like). The arugula will soften and slightly wilt during that time making the salad look more proportioned and not so arugula heavy (it makes it a little easier to eat).
- Store: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or so.

CORN SALAD WITH ARUGULA
This is a wonderful way to use canned corn in a crowd-pleasing yet sophisticated salad. Be sure to use the soft goat cheese that comes in a log or pyramid. That way, you can slice it and your guests can choose as much as they want. Another tip is to mix the corn, onion, and dressing beforehand in a plastic container and give it a quick shake before assembling your salad. This makes it perfect for potlucks!

ARUGULA AND CORN SALAD WITH ROASTED RED PEPPERS AND WHITE BEANS
Canned beans can also be used in this composed salad with a base of sweet corn and pungent arugula. Since you don't need a broth for this composed salad, canned beans will work, though I always prefer the flavor of beans I've cooked myself. I like to use a white bean, either a cannellini or a navy bean. I've always loved sweet corn with pungent arugula. I combine the two for a salad bed, which I top with the roasted peppers and beans. So the dish is really two salads, one on top of the other.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your salad. Look for ripe, brightly colored vegetables and herbs.
- Don't overdress the salad: Arugula is a delicate green, so you don't want to weigh it down with too much dressing. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
- Add some crunch: Corn kernels, nuts, and seeds are all great options for adding crunch and texture to your salad.
- Use a variety of herbs: Herbs add a lot of flavor and complexity to salads. Some good options for this salad include basil, cilantro, parsley, and mint.
- Serve immediately: Arugula salad is best served immediately, as the arugula will wilt if it sits for too long.
