Corn Fiesta Salad

Corn Fiesta Salad is the perfect side dish for all your summer grilling recipes.  It’s even great to serve with chips as an appetizer. This recipe is also known as Cowboy Caviar. However you call it, it’s delicious! 

Corn Fiesta Salad is perfect for summer BBQ's and picnics with family and friends.
Corn Fiesta Salad

Corn Fiesta Salad  is perfect for summer BBQs and picnics with family and friends.   I’ve made this recipe a few times and I always enjoy it and so does my family.  It’s fresh, delicious and easy AND it looks so pretty and summery!

Fresh corn is available right now…so why not pick up a few ears of corn and put this quick salad together.  I know you’ll enjoy it.

I shared this recipe last summer as part of a July 4th roundup, so I think the recipe became lost with all the other menu ideas.  It deserves to have a post all on its own!

Feel free to add chick peas or black eyed peas, whatever you have on hand works perfect for this salad. That’s really the beauty of this recipe, there is no right or wrong way to prepare!
