Healthfully Ever After

We love this sweet corn, tomato and zucchini grain salad with peach-Dijon vinaigrette because it says “quintessential summer dinner” loud and clear. Coterie member Carlene Thomas made sure it takes only a few minutes to whip up and uses plenty of fresh, ripe produce. (Bonus points if you add edible flowers.)
