This simple, satisfying and immune system supporting summer salad is one of our favorite things to whip up during the early days of our local corn harvest!
CORN is a great source of many essential nutrients, including potassium, iron, zinc, magnesium, phosphorus, and selenium, which have been shown to play a role in supporting the nervous system and balanced mental health.
TOMATOES are rich in vitamin C which plays an essential role in immune system support.
BASIL is a great source of antioxidants that help to protect cells from damage caused by oxidative stress.
