Labor Day Leftover Corn Salad

Labor Day is bittersweet for me.

It is never easy to see Summer officially come to an end.

We had a fabulous long weekend at the beach.

Tons of sun, laughs, friends and FOOD.

So when life gives you Labor Day Leftovers ...

Make a bright colorful salad and try to savor the last bite of summer!

Our leftover salad consisted of...

kernels from 4 ears of cooked corn

4 grilled chicken breasts cubed

4 ounces arugula

5 small tomatoes, diced

6 ounces of cubed Manchego cheese

I tossed it all together...

and drizzled it with a lemony-garlic dressing:

5 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 Tablespoon white wine vinegar

2 finely chopped garlic cloves

7 Tablespoons oil

Well, we hung onto Summer as long as we could...

bring it on Fall!
