For meme: I am also diabetic. According to my nutritionist, corn is fine to eat, you just need to count it as a carb and not as a veggie. So I have corn instead of a bread. Enjoy!!

Made this for a large reunion, many great comments. Had to give out the recipe to quite a few, wonderful fresh flavors. It is a keeper!

This recipe sounds great but I am a diabetic and can't eat corn because it turns to sugar.

Stargazerss..... did you add enough of the cilantro?  I also added some fresh lemon juice.  I know there are a LOT of diabetic "theroys", but my Mother in law.....who was more of a MOM to me than my own, was diabetic, among other problems......she would eat this and her Dr. said it was PERFECT!  No added sugar, high in fiber and also had the carbs that she needed!  I don't know your specific diet regulations, but for a diabetic with normal weight (as in NOT on a diet), this is a great salad OR lunch meal!! God bless her.......she lived WAY beyond what she was told in her 50's!!!  She passed at a wonderful, YOUNG age of 88 yrs young!!  Unfortunately, she had a stroke.  One of her "other" major health issues. 

I wish you best of health and ALWAYS do what YOUR Doctor has prescribed for YOU!!!!

Very bland, not good for diabetics (too many carbs)

We (2 of us) really enjoyed this since the vegetables used are in season for us. I cut it in half & it was plenty for us. My husband is a diabetic, so this worked for that too!

This is now our favorite summer side dish (main dish for me!). Can't be beat with fresh corn, tomatoes and herbs from the garden. Goes great with a herbed goat cheese sandwich!

Wonderful! We served this as a side with a Southwest Turkey Casserole. Even my picky grandaughters loved it.
