Fabulous salad! Delicious warm or cold. I'm not a fan of cilantro so I substituted fresh parsley. I made this with the last fresh corn of the season ... didn't need 9 ears, I got over 5 cups using 6 ears, depends on the size of the ears I'm sure. So good with fresh vegetables and herbs from the farmstand and/or garden.

I don't have access to fresh herbs unless I buy them at the store, do you think it would taste just as good using the spiced herbs? Really want to try this...sounds very light and refreshing. Thanks

great way to showcase summer produce! It made a perfect side to grilled chicken.

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!!!!
