This easy Corn Tomato and Zucchini Salad is not only super easy to make, it is inexpensive and good for you too!
Hello Friends! I hope you had a great weekend. We took a quick road trip and as much fun as it is to get out of town for a couple of days, there is truly no place like home. We barbecued on and home on Sunday night and watched a little hockey.
We had a version of this simple vegetable salad on the side, so I thought I would share this version with you. It is sort of a cross between a corn salsa and a succotash.
Made with tomatoes, zucchini, and corn, it is a great way to serve any vegetables you may have on hand. Super easy to make and great when you need a quick side dish recipe for a barbecue or meal.
You can also serve this with a light balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing in place of the olive oil. I have been trying to incorporate lighter foods so if you are on the Weight Watchers Freestyle program, the recipe is just about 1 point as is. You can also add some cilantro and jalapeno to make it more of a side salsa. It is so flexible!

How was your weekend?
So perfect. So summer refreshing! So much to dream about! Corn seems like a distant dream because if it wasn’t spring break, the kids would have had a snow day today. I kid you not.
Oh my goodness! I hope spring comes your way soon Tamara!
That looks like a great side dish!
Thanks Ashley! It is so easy too!
