Hello foodie friends! It’s hard to believe we are in the last week of August and next week is September?! I am not ready to embrace fall quite yet. It’s still summer, which means more summer inspired recipes coming your way! I am excited to feature a refreshing summer salad on my blog today. I created this beautiful Grilled Corn Salad with a White Balsamic Vinaigrette. If you are a corn lover, this salad is definitely for you! There is nothing like the taste of fresh grilled corn, especially in the summer. I picked fresh tomatoes from my vegetable garden and added them to this salad. The fresh tomatoes from my garden and the grilled corn were out of this world!! I hope you enjoy this delicious salad 🙂
