We hope you enjoy all of these wonderful ideas.

This week I am sharing a Simple BBQ Menu with you. Yesterday, we started with a fabulous main dish – my Easiest Ever Grilled Chicken marinade. So easy and delish!
Today we’re moving on to a veggie side dish: Creamy Corn Salad. When I look at this salad now, I honestly wonder why I ever tried it in the first place. It is kind of an odd combination of ingredients… But I am so glad I did!
The combination is inspired and absolutely delicious! It’s simple to put together, requires NO cooking, and goes great with yesterday’s grilled chicken.
Creamy Corn Salad
- 1 can corn, drained or 1-1/2 cups fresh or frozen corn
- 1 tomato, diced
- 1 Tb green onions
- 1/4 c mayonnaise
- 1/4 tsp dill weed
Just mix it all together, serve, and enjoy! Of course, if you use frozen corn, you will want to defrost it first. Unless you like little corn popsicles…
I know it sounds weird, but just trust me and try it. You’ll be glad you did!

I hope you love it!
I was just saying to my husband that we don’t eat enough corn. I don’t think of it until the sweet corn on the cob arrives in stores during the summer for some reason. I need to give your creamy corn salad a try, Melanie!

It’s funny to see people’s faces when I serve it and how they change (for the better) when they get brave enough to try it. I guess it looks scary to some, but it’s so yummy. 🙂
