For
the Fourth of July, I will make this wonderful salad that doesn’t require
mayonnaise. This salad is absolutely fantastic, full of summer flavor and holds
up to warmer weather.
And
it is so pretty and colorful.
Start
with four ears of cooked cooled corn, cut off the kernels.
Next
add 1 ½ cups of cooked and cooled rice,
a pint of halved cherry tomatoes, 1 cup of arugula and ½ of a thinly sliced red
onion.
I
added 1 jalepeno, seeded and diced very small. It added a wonderful zing to the
salad but add according to your tastes.
Mix
2 T. of red wine vinegar and 2 T. of olive oil. Pour over the salad and voila….
A wonderful healthy salad for the Fourth that you don’t have to worry about
placing outside.
P.S.
My cherry tomato plants have come in and I cannot tell you how sweet they
tasted in this salad.
Sounds delicious! We are eating lots of salads this summer in an attempt to not cook and to lose a pound or two.
