At first reluctant, I decided to try this for a family potluck. I had been asked to bring a fruit salad, so went searching for recipes using corn & apples because I had them on hand and didn't feel like shopping. Elsewhere on the net I read about a mom who mixes apples and corn for her kids' breakfast, these being two things kids love, so why not? I left out the onions, added lime juice to keep the apples from browning, and a touch of cinnamon to make it even more kid-friendly. My skeptical husband gave it the thumbs up... though he liked it as well before the cinnamon. Best of all, I used locally grown sweet corn, fennel and apples! Thanks for this lovely recipe!
