Summer salad with corn, strawberries & avocado

Walder Wellness, RD.

If summer was a flavour, this salad would be it! This summer salad is made with corn, strawberries, avocado, tomatoes, cucumbers, feta, and basil. Easy, healthy, and SO refreshing!

How To Make This Summer Salad

This summer salad is BEYOND easy to make! The only cooking involved is steaming the corn – the rest is simply chopping up ingredients.

To steam the corn, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, you can either add the ear of corn straight into the water or place it in a steamer basket. Cover with a lid and let steam for 5 minutes.

While the corn steams, chop up all the other ingredients! This includes strawberries, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and avocado. Crumble some feta and chop up fresh basil. Set everything aside.

Once the corn is done, remove from water and allow to cool for a few minutes (until it’s comfortable to touch). Using a large knife, place the corn upright and slice the kernels off into a bowl.

In a large salad bowl, add the kernels of corn, sliced strawberries, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and avocado chunks. Sprinkle with crumbled feta, chopped basil, olive oil, freshly-squeezed lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss everything to combine.

You can enjoy this salad immediately, or place it in the fridge to allow it to cool!

Summer Salad Storage Notes

While best enjoyed the day of, leftovers of this salad will stay fresh for about 1 day. Store in an airtight container in the fridge!

If making in advance, add the avocado, lemon juice, and olive oil immediately before serving (to prevent any sogginess)
