Corn and Blueberry Salad? Really? Corn AND blueberries? I don’t know. I will admit, that when I came across this recipe while flipping through BHG magazine last summer, I was skeptical. But, it sounded interesting, so I tore it out and put it amongst the other pages of recipes that I had torn out. One year later, while organizing these recipes I came across it again. It was too interesting not to try.
The verdict? It was amazing! It was so yummy, I’m sharing the recipe with you! Corn season is coming to an end, so don’t miss out! Fresh, sweet corn is what makes this salad a hit. Here is the recipe, adapted from BHG.
Salad: 5 ears fresh corn {not cooked}, 1 cup fresh blueberries, 1 small cucumber {I used half}, 1/4 cup red onion, 1/4 cup fresh cilantro and 1 jalepeno.
Remove the corn from the cob, chop the cucumber, onion, jalepeno and cilantro.
{I only used a teeny tiny bit of the pepper and I chopped it into very tiny pieces}
Place fresh ingredients in a large bowl.
Dressing: 2 Tbsp {or more} fresh lime juice, 2 Tbsp olive oil, 1 Tbsp honey, 1/2 tsp. ground cumin.
Combine ingredients in a jar and shake well. Pour dressing over salad.
Mix well to combine and refrigerate.
{The original recipe says overnight. I only had a few hours and it was fine.}
Serve along side your favorite grilled meal. Be sure to share this salad with friends. It’s a crowd pleaser for sure!

All that I can say is YUM…….
