How to Make Refreshing Watermelon and Corn Salad

  1. Shuck and wash the corn; cut off the kernels and place in a medium bowl.
  2. Add the remaining ingredients and toss gently to combine.
  3. Serve immediately (if preparing in advance, wait to season with salt until ready to serve).

Variations:

  • Use basil or cilantro instead of mint.
  • You can also substitute lime juice for lemon juice, and cotija cheese for feta cheese.
