MEXICAN STREET CORN SALAD

MEXICAN STREET CORN SALAD
A beautiful blend of sweet and spicy, this Mexican Street Corn Salad is made off of the cob and finished with a dash of smoky seasoning, to make it truly out of this world.
Different stroke for different folks, right? In many ways the hubs and I are polar opposites– the first example that comes to mind being that most days I’m happy living in a ‘neat mess’ while our kids are young, where he needs everything to be a hundred percent spic and span to function properly. 
Still after all the years we’ve been together, we have reaffirmed what we found out on our initial blind date, that opposites really do attract. And with a little bit of effort over the years, they endure and keep on keeping things interesting. Never a dull moment around here, that’s for sure.
Sweet and with just a hint of spice, this street corn salad is perfect at the dinner table, parties, potlucks, and even barbecues.
