🛒 Ingredients

Here’s a basic version of Confetti Salad. Feel free to tweak it based on your taste or seasonal produce:

For the Salad:

• 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen and thawed)
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 1 yellow bell pepper, diced
• 1 small cucumber, diced
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped
• 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed (optional for added protein)

For the Dressing:

• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (or lemon juice)
• 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Optional: 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin or chili powder for a kick

🥄 Instructions

1. Prep the Veggies
   Chop all your vegetables into small, even pieces. The finer the chop, the more “confetti-like” your salad will appear.
2. Mix the Dressing
   In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, honey, garlic, and seasonings.
3. Combine
   In a large salad bowl, toss all the chopped vegetables (and beans, if using) together.
4. Dress It Up
   Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently until everything is well coated.
5. Chill & Serve
   For best flavor, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra herbs or a squeeze of lime, if desired.
