This is a riff on a farmer’s salad from a local cafe here in Denver. It’s a different kind of salad – so bright and summery that you feel like you should be out picnicking in the sunshine. In fact, that’s exactly what you should do with this.

And even better, it’s so easy. We made this after a long, long day in the kitchen prepping five days of wedding food and we just were not up for cooking anything else. It was either something super easy or frozen pizza, and I’m so glad we went this route.

(We saved the frozen pizza for the next night. Aaaaall about balance around here.)

Roasted Corn Farmhouse Salad

If you have a grill going, definitely roast your corn the good old way. If you’re in a heat wave and want to cry just thinking about turning on the oven, just steam your corn in the microwave. Nobody’s here to judge you making a salad.
