Coconut Corn Salad


Coconut Corn Salad  Rating: 9

This was a slightly warmed, sweet concoction that made our taste buds sing!  Go ahead and give that lime a good squeeze as it adds a bright, wonderful, and welcomed contrast to the sweet ingredients.

Please do NOT substitute canned or frozen corn.  You deserve better. We used shredded coconut instead of flaked or shaved because that is what we had.  And though it is not mentioned, the coconut is UNsweetened and sometimes difficult to find in regular grocery stores.  They only seem to carry the sweetened version in the baking aisle.  We buy ours at an Indian market in large bags (use it in our Go-To Granola all the time).

It came together rather quickly and was best when served immediately.  Certainly enjoyed it as leftovers too but it was not the same.
