Heidi’s Arugula, Corn and Tomato Salad with Goat Cheese
When the corn is super-fresh, there’s no need to cook it. This salad is a great accompaniment to grilled fish or chicken.
Serves 4
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 small clove garlic, minced
Salt and black pepper
4 ounces baby arugula (about 5 handfuls)
2 ears corn, kernels scraped off
1 large tomato, chopped
¼ cup fresh basil, chopped
1 cup goat cheese, crumbled
1. In a large serving bowl, whisk oil, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper until blended. Add arugula, corn, tomatoes and basil; toss to coat. Top with goat cheese and serve immediately.
TIP: Use a serrated knife to scrape the kernels off the corn.
