Hi there, Ameera here!

This week’s Whip It Up Wednesday is our Cilantro Lime Corn Salad.  Super easy to make and can be used as a topper, appetizer, relish, or side salad to accompany any Southwestern meal.  Great for cookouts too! We fell in love with the first bite!

Make it a meal

We had some leftover baked sweet potatoes and some left-over hummus and decided to make a simple Southwestern meal out of it. When those Southwestern flavors come together, we just can’t help ourselves – YUM!

We took the left-over hummus, jazzed it up, and made a zesty Cilantro Lime Hummus that is amazing! We placed some of that deliciousness down on a plate with a little swirl, added half of a baked sweet potato, and topped it with this beautiful, oil free Cilantro Lime Corn Salad.

The creamy cold hummus coupled with the hot baked sweet potato, followed by the refreshing corn salad made for an awesome combination. We gobbled it right down!
