Corn and Tomato Salad

In the boundary waters, we were having a fish fry and I needed a yummy and easy side to go with it....this was DELICIOUS!!! The 4 of us just gobbled it all right up -- SO good!!!

Ingredients:

2T olive oil

4 ears of corn or about 4 cups frozen corn, thawed

1/4 teaspoon salt

6oz cherry tomatoes, halved

1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup fresh basil, sliced into small pieces

1T lemon juice

1/4 teaspoon pepper

In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, heat oil until it starts to shimmer. Add corn and salt. Cook, without stirring, until corn begins to bron on bottom, about 3 minutes. Stir and continue to cook, stirring once or twice until corn is slightly brown all over. Transfer corn to a large bowl.

Stir in tomatoes, feta, basil, lemon juice, and pepper.

Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Salmon Flatbread

Well 3 out of the 4 of us thought this was delicious :) Evan just wanted to eat the salmon hahaha We don't have an air fryer at home so we just made this on the grill, but it was super easy and good!!

Serves 4

Ingredients:

1T red wine vinegar

olive oil

capers, chopped

1 scallion, finely chopped

1 pint grape tomatoes

1lb skinless salmon fillet, cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces

1T parsley

Greek yogurt

4 pieces naan or flatbread

2 cups arugula or kale

Crumbled feta cheese

Salt and pepper

In a small bowl, combine 1T each red wine vinegar, olive oil, capers, scallion, and pepper; set aside.

Heat air fryer to 400 degrees. In bowl, toss 1 pint grape tomatoes, 1T oil, and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt and pepper. Season 1lb skinless salmon fillet with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper.

Place salmon in single layer on 1 side of air fryer and add tomatoes to remaining space (piling them is great). Air fry until salmon is barely opaque throughout, 6 min.

Transfer tomatoes to bowl with vinegar-scallion mix and toss to combine, then toss with vinegar-scallion mix and toss to combine, then toss with 1T chopped parsley.

Spread Greek yogurt on Naan/flatbread (warmed), top with salmon and arugula/kale, then spoon tomato mixture on top. Sprinkle with sliced scallions and feta.
