Full of flavor, crunchy-sweet, tangy-fresh, and colorful, this side dish is not your average corn salad. The grilled corn takes it to another level and makes it my favorite 5 TastesTable corn salad. Make it a “twofer” by grilling and enjoying Mexican Roasted Chili Lime Corn for one meal and use any leftover corn to make this amazing salad. Congratulations!
