This was a perfect summer side dish! It can sit out and actually develops fabulous flavor the longer it sits at room temperature. I used frozen corn and didn't have fresh herbs, so used a bit of dry ... no problem though. Still tasted fabulous :

Added red onion and used 5 ears of corn instead of two. Could have used a little more lime and balsamic to cover the extra stuff but otherwise delicious! Will be using again!

I originally did a search for "basil and lime" looking for something to make for dinner and came across this salad. I am so happy that I did! I didn't have all the ingredients, so I used a can of corn instead of on the cob, a fresh peach instead of the mango, and garlic powder, onion powder and red pepper flakes instead of the cumin. After letting it all chill for an hour in the fridge, I mixed it with brown rice and fresh mozzarella cut into small bits and it was one of the best meals I made all summer! Then today I ate some of the leftover salad with my lunch, and it was even better than yesterday. I will definitely make this dish again!

I decided to make this based on the great reviews it received and did it live up to my expectations! The flavors compliment each other beautifully. It's light and refreshing. I'll definitely keep this recipe!

This recipe is fabulous just as it is. We prepared some batter-dipped tilapia fillets to make fish tacos, and everyone ended up simply using this dish as the topping of choice with the fish and tortillas! Amazingly good:

I didn't think this salad had a good flavor at all. Maybe it was because of the cumin. It didn't have the fresh flavor I was expecting. I will not make this one again.

I had something like this as an appetizer at someone's home recently, they used the little "scoop" crackers that come in a bag, and we ate them together that way, very easy and very addictive. Tonight I am making this as a side dish, too hot too cook here! I had no mangos so I used up some canned diced peaches I had, I cut them a tad bit smaller, that added that touch of sweetness it needed. Like others, my garden is overgrown with basil and mint, so I used both as I saw fit. I used canned corn too, niblets, and they were fine as well. The vinaigrette of balsamic and lime juice tasted perfect.

I made this for our dinner this afternoon. I was fortunate to have enough ingredients on hand plus I tweaked it a bit.

I used both parsley and basil from my garden. I didn't have any mangos, but I had some nice ripe nectarines, which I used instead and used a little bit of red onion since I didn't have any red papper.

I have a cookout to go to next week and have decided that this will be something different to add to the table. This is definitely a recipe where you can almost use whatever you have available in your pantry and it will still come out delish.

I love this recipe. I subbed cooked brown rice in for the garbanzo beans and it tasted great! We will make this again and again!
