"Great summer side dish that is simple to prepare but yields farm fresh flavor!"

 

• Ready In: 26mins
• Ingredients: 8
• Serves: 3-4

ingredients

• 3 -4 ears white corn, husked & cleaned
• 1 -2 tomatoes, diced
• 1⁄2 large onion, diced
• 1 garlic clove, minced finely
• 2 tablespoons chopped basil (fresh)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon white vinegar
• salt & pepper

directions

1. Cook the corn, drain, & cool (I microwave the corn six to eight minutes covered with wax paper --it's faster & it turns out much crisper). Cut off the kernels. In a large bowl, toss together the corn, tomatoes, onion, garlic, basil, oil, and vinegar. Season with salt & pepper. Chill until serving.
2. (You can add shredded mozzarella or even a chopped jalapeno for heat!).
