As promised, I am sharing the recipe for the salad pictured with the Steak a la Gregg recipe I posted last week. For that steak recipe, click here.

This side salad is tasty, hearty and a real crowd pleaser. What’s more, it’s so healthy that you don’t have to avoid it when on a diet or another type of healthy eating program. But at the same time, because it tastes so good, you don’t have to “Doctor it up” for guests who might not be on a diet.

Imagine: You and your guests eating and enjoying the same food. What a concept!

Ingredients:

4 Cobs of Corn

1 Avocado (Large, ripe, but firm – not mushy)

2 Pints Grape Tomatoes

Olive Oil

Balsamic Vinegar

Fresh Ground Pepper to Taste

Preparation:

• Remove corn kernels from cob with sharp knife, and then place freshly cut kernels in bowl.

• Rinse grape tomatoes, cut into halves, add all to bowl with the corn kernels.

• Peel avocado, cut into small chunks, add to bowl with corn and tomatoes.

• Add 4 Tablespoons of Olive Oil, 2 Tablespoons of Balsamic Vinegar. Pepper to taste. Toss together and serve immediately.

Serves: Approximately 6

This also makes a great dish to bring to any party. I promise, it will be a big hit. Double the recipe and make it shortly before you leave. Do not add olive oil, Balsamic vinegar or Pepper until just before serving.
