What happens when you start with this?
You get this, AND...
You end up with THIS!
What is it you ask? Well, it's a quick corn salsa. But I figured why stop there. It's soooo freaking good that I just knew it'd be perfect as a salad dressing - and I was right. I love a little kick - so I took out some frozen shrimp, tossed them with red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, Cajun Seasoning, and olive oil. I roasted them for about 8 minutes at 375 degrees.
Yup - it looks good because it is good.
AND what? I'm thinking like 300 calories per serving - maybe even less. This salad does NOT compromise on flavor AT ALL. And there's hardly any fat.
Oh - So, the corn salsa recipe?
I don't have one.
But here's what I did. I took frozen corn, chopped red onion, crushed garlic, a few cherry tomatoes, salt, pepper, a dash of sugar, red wine vinegar, and olive oil. That's it!
How simple is that?
You can TOTALLY do this.
And you'll be skinny in no time - too bad it's not working for me just yet.

Wish I had the wil power to do it.
I am trying my best.
I made that twice for the buffet at college. That goes very well!
uuumm corn salsa is that deal.
Looks colorful, flavorful and just plain good!!!
This looks easy enough... I think I'll try this one... and soon! I posted about your website on my page! I enjoy reading your recipes!
I could get used to eating this, plus I would enjoy the healthier aspect of it as well. It is hard to resist a good corn salsa in my opinion.
yum, and roasting it? great idea!
Feed me!! lol
YUP! Looks good, light, flavorful and perfect for toning it up.
my mouth is watering now.....
Mmm, salsa!!
Salsa ans skrimps, nice. That would probably make a good stuffing for a wrap.
Looks so colourful and tasty!
Anything full of colors means it's good for you. It's just a rule! This looks great.
I'm gonna do a conga-line for some shrimp and corn salsa!
You are way too good a cook to be skinny! This looks lovely.
I like the end results. Looks fantastic!
hey! I have all of those ingredients on hand! I need to try this one--it'll make one skinny, eh? :D
Great idea. I've made something similar to this with black beans and cilantro added. Gives it a little more body and protein.
Now if only ALL healthy recipes tasted this good!
i can be on diet the rest of my life with your kind of cooking... :) lovely...happy chinese new year!!!
Shoot - I had a shrimp recipe all ready for a mini Chinese New Year's dinner tomorrow and now I want to switch to this one! I think I will save your deliciously healthy shrimp for another day when we need good "diet" food - but we will definitely be trying this! Yum!
I'm never really sure what to make with shrimp. Haven't tried corn and shrimp. You may be on to something.
mmm that looks so tasty!
Check out this website, I think it's a cool tool.
