This corn salad with chopped pickles and creamy mayo dressing is super easy and delicious. You’ll love it so much, it will become your go-to side when you’re grilling!

Memorial Day is behind us and it is finally getting warmer here, which means it is officially barbecue season — and I’m back at the grill! (Truthfully, I never left the grill… I’ve been known to grill all year round!)

Often when I’m barbecuing for my family and friends, I make this corn salad to have on the side, because not only is it so flavorful and fun, but it’s also so easy. In fact, I don’t only serve it at barbecues or picnics. I’ll also make it for Shabbos, shalosh seudos, or any time I need a little extra something on the table. It takes seconds to put together and it’s so delicious! Plus, it lasts for several days in the fridge, unlike some other fresh salads that you need to eat right away. Feel free to double or triple for bigger crowds. It’s really forgiving!

Whenever I’m chopping veggies — even if it’s just a few pickles — I always use a good knife. It makes the job so much quicker and smoother! Victorinox knives are the best, even if they are a bit pricier. It’s worthwhile to spend a little, since nothing is more frustrating than a knife that just won’t cut! You can try this big chef’s knife or a smaller (less scary) serrated knife. Either one will do an amazing job!

Another great salad to serve when you’re grilling is my simple tomato salad. It is also super quick and easy, and so satisfying served alongside a piece of grilled chicken or a burger!
