This is my go-to summer dish--and it's one that even my toddler will eat.

  • 4 ears of corn, shucked and cleaned
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped
  • 1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • juice from 1 lime
  • 1
    Put corn in a large pot. Fill with water until corn is covered. Bring to a boil. As soon as water starts to boil, turn off heat and let corn sit for 10 minutes.
  • 2
    Drain corn. Rinse with cold water. Let cool 30 minutes-2 hours.
  • 3
    Cut corn off of cobs. Put into a large bowl.
  • 4
    Halve cherry tomatoes. Add to corn.
  • 5
    Add basil, vinegar and lime juice. Stir until combined.
  • 6
    Salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add chopped bell peppers for a bit more color, or jalapenos if you like it spicy.
