Description

A meatless main dish salad perfect for summer!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 ears corn (or 2 cups frozen corn, thawed)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, plus more for grilling
  • 2 tbsp cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
  • 1 can black-eyed peas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup red onion, diced
  • 2 firm-ripe avocados, peeled and diced
  • 3 oz. feta cheese, crumbled
  • spinach, for serving

Instructions

  1. Brush corn with olive oil and grill over medium heat for 10 minutes, until lightly browned on all sides. Remove kernels from cobs with a sharp knife. (If using frozen corn, just thaw and use or heat in a skillet with a bit of olive oil, cayenne pepper, and cumin to spice it up a bit!)
  2. In a large bowl, whisk olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Add corn, black-eyed peas, tomatoes, and red onion. Toss gently and serve over spinach or other greens, topping with avocado and feta.
