Categories     Other Salads

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pkg slaw mix (small to medium size)
1 pkg grated cheese (small to medium size)
1 can(s) whole kernal corn
1 small chopped onion
1 small chopped bell pepper
2 c mayonnaise (can use less)
1-2 c bottled italian salad dressing
1 large sliced tomato (for decoration, optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Mix everything (except tomatoes) in a large bowl. Top with the sliced tomatoes.

Tips:

  • Prep your corn: If using fresh corn, remove the kernels from the cob using a sharp knife or a corn stripper. If using frozen corn, thaw it according to the package instructions.
  • Choose the right tomatoes: For the best flavor, use ripe, juicy tomatoes. Roma tomatoes are a good option because they have fewer seeds and a meaty texture.
  • Chop your vegetables evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly and have a consistent texture.
  • Don't overcook the corn: Corn only takes a few minutes to cook, so be careful not to overcook it or it will become tough.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or lime juice for a bit of brightness.
  • Chill before serving: This salad is best served chilled, so make it ahead of time and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Lynn's Corn Salad is a delicious and refreshing salad that is perfect for summer gatherings. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its sweet corn, juicy tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, and tangy dressing, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next potluck or barbecue.
