Asparagus, Basil and Corn Salad
Report
This salad is everything summer stands for. Grilled corn, farmers market tomatoes, asparagus, basil and mozzarella. Most everything is thrown on the grill until it just has a slight char and smokiness that’s undeniably fantastic and then tossed together. Serve it on it’s own for lunch, or use it as a side to grill meat, chicken, or fish!
