I'm not a big fan of salads, but this one is actually really good. The dressing is what makes it.

I'm not a huge fan of corn, but I really enjoyed this salad. The dressing is so good that it made me forget all about the corn.

This salad was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a bit too much chipotle powder in the dressing. Next time I'll use less.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add some more roasted peppers. They add such a nice smoky flavor.

This salad is a fiesta of flavors and textures! The sweet corn, roasted peppers, and tangy dressing balance each other perfectly. I added some grilled chicken for extra protein and it was a hit with my family.
