{soups-salads-and-salad-dressings} Winning Recipe: White Balsamic Blueberry, Corn, and Feta Salad [Diabetic Exchanges Provided]

 

My shares from Taste of Home today were winners in a contest for sides in the Summer 2018 issue, which I got a while ago, but just got around to reading this weekend.  GREAT RECIPES!

White Balsamic Blueberry, Corn, and Feta Salad (4th Prize)

I'm not typically a huge fan of summer corn, but when it comes to this sweet, salty, refreshing salad, I can't put my fork down. I find that grilling the corn inside of the husk makes it easier to remove all the corn silk from each cob. —Colleen Delawder, Herndon, Virginia (note from Jodi, she must be nuts!  Corn and heirloom tomatoes [in my humble opinion] are one of God’s greatest summer time gifts!)

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 30 minutes + soaking

Grill: 20 minutes.

YIELD: 10 servings

Ingredients

8 medium ears sweet corn

3 tablespoons olive oil

3 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar

1 tablespoon minced fresh chives, plus more for garnish

3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 cup fresh blueberries

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

 

Directions

Carefully peel back corn husks to within 1 in. of bottoms; remove silk. Rewrap corn in husks; secure with kitchen string. Place in a stockpot; cover with cold water. Soak 20 minutes; drain.

Grill corn, covered, over medium heat about 20 minutes or until tender, turning often. Cut string and peel back husks. Cool slightly. Cut corn from cobs; transfer to a large bowl.

In a small bowl, whisk the oil, vinegar, chives, salt and pepper. Pour over corn; toss to coat. Gently fold in blueberries and feta. Garnish with additional chives as desired.
