Tomato, Cucumber and Corn Salad

This was really delicious and really light. We served it over couscous. I went back for seconds.




INGREDIENTS
  • 1to 1 1/4 pounds ripe tomatoes, cut in small dice
  • ½european cucumber, 2 Persian cucumbers or 1 regular cucumber, peeled if waxy, seeded if the seeds are large, and cut in small dice
  • 2ears corn, steamed for 4 minutes and kernels removed from the cob ( we used a tin of corn)
  • 1to 2 serranos or jalapeƱo pepper, minced (seeded for a milder salad), or 1/2 teaspoon Aleppo pepper (we used one medium green chile and it was perfect!)
  • Salt to taste
  • ¼cup chopped cilantro ( must have!)
  • 2tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1tablespoon fresh lime juice or lemon juice
  • 2tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1optional: 1 ounce feta, crumbled (about 1/4 cup)
