This delightful salad is the perfect pairing for a BBQ. We love it with applewood smoked ribs and a cool gin cocktail (a white lady is the best). It's a Mediterranean-inspired Toronto summer classic, named after Danforth Avenue, which is home to a large Greek community. Not sure when it was invented, but we ate it all the time growing up in north Toronto in the 1980s. Yummy.

barker.j@yahoo.comThis salad is a great way to use up leftover corn. I always have some leftover corn after I make corn on the cob, and this is a great way to use it up.

ayazjanh@gmail.comThis salad was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used a sweeter variety of corn. Next time I'll try using a less sweet corn.
