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!
Prepare your grill. Rub the ears of corn with butter and place over the flame, rotating every few minutes until the corn is lightly charred. Remove from the grill and let cool. Once cooled, cut off the kernels and place into a large bowl. Set aside.
Drizzle the asparagus with olive oil. Transfer the grill and grill until just charred. Cut the asparagus into 1 inch pieces. Add the asparagus to the bowl of corn.
To the bowl of corn and asparagus, add the mozzarella, basil, tomatoes salt, pepper, balsamic and olive oil. Gently combine with a fork and serve. Serve at room temperature.
Notes
Store in the fridge, but let come to room temp when you are ready to serve.
