So, I posted this guy on instagram last week before we were heading out to a little BBQ, and immediately got 10 messages to please post the recipe.
Oh, you guys. You mean, you’d like to have the ultimate summer picnic/BBQ perfect/easy healthy recipe/and my new favorite make-ahead dish, too? I should have known.
Wait. Who doesn’t want that?
So, as promised:
The Summer Picnic Poblano Salad.
Like a greek salad had a baby with a mexican salad.
I mean, is there anything better in life?
Optional to try it topped with grilled chicken, steak, shrimp or fish, arugula, cubed avocado, grated parm or crumbled feta, or with chopped chipotle peppers.

This looks fantastic — thank you Sarah!!! I plan to try this for my office BBQ 🙂 Can this be made the night before with the dressing without getting soggy? Also do you use raw corn kernels or do you boil first? Thanks for the summer inspiration!
