Categories     Entree

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 - 3 oz. baby arugula
4 ears of corn, shucked (about 3 cups) *see notes
1 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 red onion, diced
1 lemon, juice of
1 - 2 tablespoons olive oil, optional
1/2 teaspoon salt + pepper, or to taste

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



Corn Salad with Arugula image

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, CORN AND HERB SALAD



Arugula, Corn and Herb Salad image

Corn, lightly steamed and cut off the cob, is terrific in salads. It goes very nicely with arugula, the sweet corn providing a beautiful contrast to the pungent salad green. Although we don't think of corn as a nutritional powerhouse, it's a good source of several nutrients, including thiamin (vitamin B1), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), folate, dietary fiber, vitamin C, phosphorus and manganese. A cup of corn supplies 19 percent of the recommended daily dose of folate, and about a quarter of the daily value for thiamin.
