Makes 8 servings

Ingredients

6 ears sweet corn, husked (or 1½ cups frozen corn)
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 cup fresh blueberries
4 tablespoons lime juice
1 cup cooked wild rice
4 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil.

Add corn.

Cook covered for 5 minutes, or until tender.

When cool enough to handle, cut corn from cobs.

In a serving bowl combine corn, blueberries, cucumber, red onion, cilantro, wild rice, and jalapeno.

Cover; shake well to combine.

Add to salad and toss.

Cover the salad and refrigerate overnight or up to 24 hours.
