This salad makes the best use of leftover grilled corn from your weekend BBQ- just skip the step where you cook the corn and just cut the kernels off right into the pan before serving.
Ingredients
1jar Piquillo peppers
1TbspExtra virgin olive oil
2TbspButter
1Shallotdiced
1cloveGarlicminced
4Ears of corn
1can Cannellinior Great Northern beans
1pintHalved and roasted cherry tomatoes
1tspSalt

Instructions
Cut the kernels off the husk into a bowl, keeping as much of the milky substance as possible. To do this, cut the end off the cob and set the corn, standing up, in the bowl. Hold your knife at a 45 degree angle, slanted downwards, and slice off the kernels so the corn milk goes into the bowl with the kernels.
Melt butter over medium heat in saute pan. Add shallot and cook until translucent, then add garlic and cook another 30 seconds. Add the corn and cook for another 2-3 minutes, shaking the pan often.
Add the beans, cooking them until hot. Add the peppers, edemame and roasted tomatoes. Sprinkle a half a lemon of juice, adding salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm or cold.
