Mediterranean Corn Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (10 ounce) bag frozen corn, thawed
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
1 (7 1/4 ounce) jar roasted red peppers, drained and chopped (feel free to sub fresh diced green or red bell peppers for more crunch to the salad)
4 ounces crumbled feta cheese (tomato basil flavor works great if you can find it)
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onion
1 minced garlic clove
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar (I double this)
salt and pepper
chopped fresh basil (optional, but adds a TON of flavor)

Preparation

Mix together corn, beans, peppers, feta, and onion.
Mix oil, vinegar and garlic, then pour over the corn mixture.
Gently stir to blend and chill several hours or overnight. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Sprinkle top of salad with fresh basil just before serving. Tastes best at room temperature.
