Raw Corn and Zucchini Salad with Lime Vinaigrette

While I was flipping through this month’s issue of Everyday Food, I saw a recipe for a raw corn salad. I did a double take, because I couldn’t recall ever being tempted to taste raw corn. Naturally, I had to try it. I loved the different flavors of the raw zucchini and corn. With a very light lime vinaigrette, this was a very fresh tasting salad. I will be making this at least once more this summer while the corn is still at it’s best.
