Grilled Chicken Salad Recipe – perfect juicy grilled chicken, grilled corn off the cob, tomatoes, lettuce, avocado and onion make for a delicious summer salad! Simple oil and vinegar dressing is the perfect finishing touch.

While barbecue chicken, baked beans, burgers and franks rule summer backyard cookouts, I also find myself craving light and fresh meals. Salad is simply the perfect choice!

This salad is a summer in a bowl! It’s colorful and full of flavor. Grilled chicken and corn on the cob are the star ingredients here. This is my favorite way to use any leftovers from my Easy Grilled Chicken and complement it with corn, avocado, cherry tomatoes, lettuce and red onion.

Instant Pot Corn Chowder with Bacon Recipe – delicious soup made in a pressure cooker. This rich and creamy chowder is packed with fresh corn, potatoes and crispy bacon.

One of our favorite summer soups to make is corn chowder. It’s creamy, satisfying and full of flavor. Especially since I make it in my pressure cooker. If you have an Instant Pot and never tried to cook soup in it, you have to do it! You will love it! The flavors are as intense as if the soup was simmering on the stove for hours, when in fact it takes under 30 minutes to have it done from the time you cut the corn off the cob. Besides there is bacon involved and that is always a good thing. I love the meaty flavor it adds to this chowder.

INSTANT POT CORN CHOWDER WITH BACON

Cooking the bacon in the pot first, creates a base for this delicious soup. I also add the fresh corn to veggies to saute before closing the lid to let it caramelize just a bit. All of these flavors make this Instant Pot Corn Chowder one of the best I have ever had!
