Mediterranean Corn Salad image

A simple salad best served at room temperature, so it's perfect for summer BBQs and potlucks. I think some marinated artichokes and some sundried tomatoes would be good additions to this recipe as well. I also throw in about 1/2 tsp of Greek seasoning in mine. Recipe from Dierberg's Everybody Cooks.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (10 ounce) bag frozen corn, thawed
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
1 (7 1/4 ounce) jar roasted red peppers, drained and chopped (feel free to sub fresh diced green or red bell peppers for more crunch to the salad)
4 ounces crumbled feta cheese (tomato basil flavor works great if you can find it)

1 minced garlic clove
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar (I double this)
salt and pepper
chopped fresh basil (optional, but adds a TON of flavor)

Steps:

  • Mix together corn, beans, peppers, feta, and onion.

  • Sprinkle top of salad with fresh basil just before serving. Tastes best at room temperature.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding some more herbs or spices to the dressing.

This salad was a bit too tangy for my taste. I would recommend using less lemon juice in the dressing.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover corn on the cob. I just cut the kernels off the cob and toss them in the salad. It's a quick and easy way to get a healthy side dish on the table.

I'm not usually a fan of corn salad, but this recipe changed my mind. The addition of feta cheese and Kalamata olives gave it a nice salty, briny flavor that really elevated the dish. Will definitely be making this again!
