Dean
"Colorful and refreshing salad using flavorful summer vegetables. The grilled vegetables and crisp tastes complement many grilled meats. You can substitute cherry tomatoes for the baby heirloom tomatoes."

Ready In
- Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Rub ears of corn with 2 teaspoons olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper; roast the ears on the preheated grill, turning occasionally, until the kernels are lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Place red and yellow bell pepper on the grill and roast until the skins are blistered and lightly charred, turning often, about 15 minutes. Remove corn and bell peppers and let cool.
- Cut the kernels from the cobs and place into a large bowl. Peel skins from bell peppers, seed, and cut the peppers into 1-inch pieces; mix peppers and corn together. Lightly toss with heirloom tomatoes, red onion, and basil. Cover and refrigerate until serving time.
- Just before serving, mix in the salad greens and drizzle salad with 2 tablespoons olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Lightly toss to coat with dressing and season with salt and black pepper.

How crazy am I, but I subbed 1 1/2c thawed frozen corn & regular tomatoes chopped. I also just made the "topping," no salad mix. Pretty, but not wowing in flavor.

This dish was gone in a flash! Everyone loved it! Very light, fresh, and beautiful dish. This is a great summery dish, perfect for barbeque get togethers! This will be made often!

We absolutely loved the smoked taste from the roasted corn and peppers in this salad. It was light, yet so full of flavor! I'll definitely be making this again soon!

I made this according to the recipe, with one omission -- I left out the greens, as I was already serving a green salad. The salad was delicious, and less time consuming to make than I expected....

Great summer salad. Good for warm spring days too when you're itching to get the grill going. Per another review, I added a bit of feta cheese. Served with grilled pork chops.
