Grilled Spicy Corn Salad like this is such a staple of my household. I love, love corn!

It’s one of those salads where you can use whatever you have on hand, including tomatoes, peppers, jalapenos, and coleslaw. It has great versatility!

If you ask me, what’s my favorite thing about summer? Easy! My favorite thing about summer is without a doubt the fresh produce.

Don’t you think so?

Grilled Spicy Corn Salad

I mean, I know a lot of people who genuinely love the summertime, but not me. I like cooler mountain temperatures unless I live in Hawaii or somewhere on a European beach.

So let’s check out what we got here; I grilled corn on my Traeger, removed it from the cob, and combined it with juicy cherry tomatoes, avocado, and serrano peppers.

Oh my goodness, it tastes heavenly once you dress it up with tasty honey-lime vinaigrette. I am telling you it is easy-peasy and bursts with flavor.

You can serve this with whatever you want or just scoop it with chips. Certainly, it goes well with grilled meat or fish so it can be called a side dish as well. I love serving it with sandwiches, too.

It also holds well in the fridge for a few days if you pack it in an airtight container. I love glass jars or glass containers such as these on Amazon.
