*I didn't have all of the ingredients for this so I had to improvise, but I still thought it was a good salad. I bet it would even be better if I had the right ingredients. Instead of grilling corn, I put frozen corn on a baking sheet and baked it for 15 minutes or so and that was simple and I thought it was good.
