This blueberry salad is one of my favorite ways to celebrate peak summer produce. It is light, colorful, and packed with wonderful textures that make it perfect for a sunny afternoon lunch or a side dish at your next backyard cookout.

My top tip for this salad is to use fresh, sweet corn cut straight from the cob if you can find it. If you have any leftovers, wait to add the avocado until right before you serve it so everything stays fresh and vibrant.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup fresh corn kernels
  • 1 large ripe avocado, diced
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1 pinch of black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the fresh blueberries and corn kernels into a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Gently fold in the diced avocado and the fresh basil leaves being careful not to mash the fruit.

  3. 3

    In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

  4. 4

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving and toss gently to coat everything evenly.

💡 Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one day. You can add some crumbled feta cheese or grilled chicken if you want to turn this into a heartier main meal.
