Summer Celebration Nectarine, Tomato & Corn Salad Recipe (4 Ingredients, 10 Minutes) Salads Fruit Vegetables Budget Recipes Vegetarian Lunch Farm to Table Recipe Gluten-free

I love summer with the abundance of fresh produce available for wonderful, healthy and nutritious recipes. Our Midwest farmers market produce is just starting to deliver a colorful array of fruits and vegetables, and this nectarine, tomato and corn salad recipe is the perfect way to celebrate those summer fresh fruits and vegetables.

This fruit and vegetable salad goes from cutting board to platter and is ready in just 10 minutes. The vibrant colors of the nectarines, tomatoes and corn are topped with the tangy and sweet balsamic vinaigrette, and tastes like summer should, fresh and sweet!

To make this healthy summer celebration salad recipe you only need four ingredients. Here is your wholesome, farm-to-table shopping list: fresh tomatoes, fresh nectarines, fresh corn on the cob and a balsamic vinaigrette. You can add optional feta cheese, if desired. I used a homemade honey balsamic vinaigrette, which was wonderful, but your favorite balsamic vinaigrette will work beautifully.

Serve this summer salad for lunch or as a refreshing side dish with dinner. We like it with roasted chicken and some homemade sourdough bread. Not only is this summer recipe easy to make and beautiful to serve (eat the rainbow!), but you get the health benefits of corn, the health benefits of nectarines and the health benefits of tomatoes.
