Gardener's Sweet Corn and Cherry Tomato Salad image

This salad is a celebration of the summer garden- fresh ripe corn, sweet juicy cherry tomatoes still warm from the summer sun, and basil picked from the herb garden. I like Yellow Pear and Sweet Million tomatoes, but use whatever grows well in your garden. This is a very simple recipe that is all about using the best that the summer garden can offer. Second rate ingredients will not produce the same result. If you're reading this in the winter, save it until you can use fresh, local produce! You'll be glad you did.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the dressing.

This recipe is a great way to use up fresh summer produce. I used heirloom tomatoes and sweet corn from my garden.

This salad is a symphony of flavors! The sweetness of the corn and tomatoes pairs perfectly with the tangy dressing. I added some crumbled feta cheese for an extra pop of flavor.
