This Blueberry Corn Feta Salad was born from a happy accident one summer when I mixed leftover grilled corn with blueberries—what a discovery! The sweetness of fruit, saltiness of feta, and zing of chili-lime vinaigrette make every bite exciting. It’s the kind of dish that turns heads at gatherings and makes you smile with each forkful.
1½ cups fresh or grilled corn kernels (about 2 ears)
1 cup fresh blueberries
½ cup crumbled feta cheese
ÂĽ cup chopped red onion
ÂĽ cup chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
1 tbsp olive oil
Juice of 1 lime
½ tsp chili powder (adjust to taste)
½ tsp honey (optional)
Salt & black pepper to taste
If using fresh corn, grill or steam it and cut off the kernels.
In a large bowl, combine corn, blueberries, feta, onion, and herbs.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, honey (if using), salt, and pepper.
Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently.
Chill for 10 minutes before serving for best flavor.
Use grilled corn for smoky flavor.
Add avocado for a creamy touch.
Great as a side dish or scoop it up with tortilla chips!
