This was yummy and Oh So EASY which makes it even more yummy. I made it the afternoon before dinner and let it sit in the fridge about 2-3 hours before serving. I thought the mix of lime, basil and sugar was just perfect. I could see throwing some black beans or even maybe brown rice and cooked chicken in here next time to make it more of a one dish meal. Thanks for the great treat!

I made this exactly as the recipe was written and it was delicious. Used fresh basil from my garden and frozen corn. Went perfectly with a summer menu featuring grilled hamburgers.

I altered this a bit by adding black beans and subbing cilantro in for the basil, and it turned out great! I'll probably be making this again soon, since it is a healthy, easy, and fast dish for a busy college student.

This is a great recipe to give a taste of "summer" when there really aren's many summer veggies in season. I used frozen white sweet corn, which worked really well. I love that you can make it well ahead of time, and it keeps well until time to serve. Like some of the other reviewers, I too decided that it needed something to give it more pep and perhaps improve the appearance. I added about 1/2 cup of diced red onion after tasting it, then and about 1/4 pound of baby spinach (the bagged kind) just before serving. This got RAVE reviews at my first dinner party in a very long time. I'll definitely make this again.

I used fresh corn cut off the cob and microwaved for 3 minutes. It not only tasted great but it was very pretty, with all the color contrasts. I will definately make this again. It was great- very fresh summer tastes.

It was a refreshing salad. I used frozen corn that was thawed first. It was ok like that but I prefer corn cooked. I am using this as an idea for roasted tomatoe and corn salad, which is also delicious. I roast the corn and cherry tomatoes with olive oil and dried basil in the oven at 400F for 9 minutes and then toss it with this recipe's vinaigrette.

Quite yummy and healthy. Took this to a potluck - it was the only dish with nothing left at the end of the party. Appeals to young and old and is a breeze to make. I was surprised that the basil went over so big.
