Grilled Summer Squash and Corn Salad

August 29, 2017 · Leave a Comment

Grilled Summer Squash and Corn Salad | Dreamery Events

What really is succotash? It’s a summer salad with a combination of butter beans, corn, summer and squash. Well it became the inspiration for this grilled summer squash corn salad, sans the beans. 

Like all the recipes I’m sharing this week, this is another easy one to make ahead. Grill up all the squash and corn the day before, coat in the dressing and relax knowing you’ve got a great side dish all ready for your guests. And like this potato salad, it’s sunny warm weather approved, tasting better at room temperature or warmed on the grill.

This fresh summer veggie salad deserves a little kick, it’s just begging for a sprinkle of cayenne or some sliced grilled jalapeño. The heat brings out the squash’s simple flavors. And I have told you I couldn’t get enough of three foods this summer, well you’re seeing a bit of corn in this recipe too. I mean when there’s so much of it in season and at markets, it’s almost a shame not to enjoy as much of this vegetable as you can for the short months of summer we have. Most just grill or boil it, but when it comes to corn you can really do so much with it. I spiced up this black bean salsa and now blended it with my go to summer grilled vegetable dish, to create a deliciously light and seasonally flavored salad.

It can also be mixed with greens, like red leaf lettuce or spinach, and grilled chicken for a heartier salad. Oh, and as a side note, I had roasted corn for lunch, yes talk about getting as much as you can.

Grilled summer squash can become repetitive too, so it’s worth it to change things up, like using different fresh herbs or mixing with another seasonal vegetable.

the leaves lulled themselves to sleep

Flow into Autumn & set the table with warm neutrals that complement the season’s rich hues. Earthy brown glassware to soft sand-colored linens & candlelight. Layer in dried stems, rocks, nuts or gourds to celebrate the abundance of nature🍂

Set the table for 10, for 2 but especially for you Set the table for 10, for 2 but especially for you! We’re welcoming the warm brisk embrace of Autumn. What better time to light some candles & have ourselves an intimate gathering. Intentionally setting a table is special, never needing to be fussy — effortless natural beauty is much more memorable🌾

As we head into the first weekend of autumn, I’m sharing my essentials for an intimate gathering at home, on the blog now…

Ps. I say we all start a new tradition of romanticizing solo dinners at home✨

Moodboards help any one of us conceptualize design Moodboards help any one of us conceptualize designs & ideas more efficiently. We're often most inspired by things in unlikely ways, how we then translate that inspiration into something, is quite special. It gifts us the hopeful excitement of truly stopping, focusing on what's around us now, in order to look forward -- to intentionally hone in on the things speaking to us in the moment🌾

And with three dimensional moodboards, we get a level of depth & texture that feel authentic & attainable by using things we already have. When all the different details are brought together, we can then begin to see the story unfold....

Sharing this year's autumn moodboards on the blog now. Hopefully they inspire you to have a different perspective when creating this season✨

I love how a space transforms itself every season, I love how a space transforms itself every season, or how wide-open ones are never truly “blank slates” ... they are simply waiting to be filled with magic, a little something beautiful, some flowers & love🤍🌿🌾

ps. I’ll always love a good before + after...
