TheLadyEve: Where I live it is corn season; corn salads are one of my favorite ways to use it. If you can get it, please consider using fresh corn cut off the ear. You can grill it, steam it, or just cut it off and eat it raw. This recipe calls for cooked, but I don’t think that’s necessary. However, if you grill it, you’ll get lovely charred bits that add delightful flavor.

ihugfaces: Protip: forego the spoon and load some tortilla chips up with this.
That looks *really* good
mizike: Replace the lettuce with black beans and we’re in business.
