Stoplight Corn Salad

from the Super Suppers chapter
Serves 6


Tools Needed:
Kitchen Knife - Measuring Spoons - Mixing Bowl



This is especially easy for younger kids if you buy pre-chopped vegetables from the salad bar in the grocery store.
Makes for great color presentation on the table for any season!

Ingredients:
1 cucumber
1 tomato
1/2 green bell pepper
1/2 small onion
1 each whole green bell pepper, red bell pepper and yellow bell pepper
2 (11-ounce) cans white Shoe Peg corn, drained
2 tablespoons light mayonnaise
1 to 2 tablespoons sugar 


 
PREPARE THE VEGETABLES 
Chop the cucumber, tomato, 1/2 green pepper and the onion with a kitchen knife. Remove the stems from the whole bell peppers. Cut the whole bell peppers into halves crosswise and discard the seeds and membranes.









 

MAKE THE SALAD
Combine the chopped vegetables, corn, mayonnaise and sugar in a mixing bowl and mix well.










SERVE IT UP
Spoon the salad into the bell pepper halves and arrange on a serving plate 








For something different, try using Italian salad dressing instead of the mayonnaise and sugar in this recipe.
