Steps:
- Start by slicing the cabbage very thinly. You can use a mandoline to help you slice, if you have one.
- Place the sliced cabbage into a large mixing bowl and add salt and pepper. Using your hands, massage the cabbage (as if you are kneading dough). This will soften the cabbage and release some juices so that it will become moist.
- Add all of the remaining ingredients and mix well. Serve.

Steps:
- In a Dutch oven, bring 2 quarts lightly salted water to a boil over high heat. Carefully add fresh ears of corn; return to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer, covered, for 6 to 8 minutes or until corn is tender (Or, cook the frozen corn according to package directions.) Drain corn well. When fresh corn is cool enough to handle, cut off corn kernels. Hold an ear of corn at an angle so that one end rests on cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut down across tips of kernels toward board. Repeat with remaining ears.
- In a large bowl, combine the corn, cabbage, sweet pepper, and celery. To prepare the dressing, in a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine oil, lemon juice, honey, mustard, salt, and black pepper. Cover; shake well. Pour dressing over corn mixture. Toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 24 hours. To serve, spoon the salad onto leaf lettuce, if desired.

SUMMER CABBAGE SALAD
A great salad for summer days, cool, crunchy and refreshingly light. The chicken breasts are preferably barbecued for extra flavor, but baked is ok too. I also often double this recipe and make 3 times the dressing and there is always great lunch leftovers remaining. People also love the dressing so more typically goes onto the salad when you let them self serve than would normally, and that's ok, it makes it very flavorful. You can also crush up the ramen not used when making the dressing, and top the salad with these as well. I prefer them without.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, sweet corn. If you can't find fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn, but the flavor will not be as good.

- Be sure to rinse the cabbage well before using it to remove any dirt or debris.
- If you like, you can add other vegetables to this salad, such as diced red bell pepper, chopped cucumber, or shredded carrots.
- This salad is best served chilled, so be sure to refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes before serving.
