A closeup of a corn, cucumber, tomato, and red onion saladThis easy corn salad recipe is bursting with flavor and crunch with mini cucumbers and grape tomatoes. I love using mini cucumbers in this recipe because the skin is tender and they have the perfect crunch and taste. This salad tastes so fresh and summery. And it’s naturally gluten-free which makes it a big win.

    Very good! This recipe was perfect as a side dish to take to a Thanksgiving meal where I wouldn’t have access to a stove or oven. I made it the night before, packed it in the cooler and it tasted great the next day. It was a nice way to get healthy, fresh veggies on our plates.
