Fresh Corn + 5 Recipes = The Best Week Ever 🌽



Hi, Reader,

If you have a farm stand or farmers market near you, you already know: sweet corn season is HERE and it is glorious.

Every summer I look forward to that first haul of fresh corn — the kind that's so sweet and tender you could eat it raw right off the cob. (And spoiler: you totally can! More on that below. 😄)

Whether you're grilling out this weekend, looking for a light summer dinner, or just trying to make the most of the best produce of the year, I've got five delicious ways to put that corn to work.

🌽 Raw Corn Radish Salad

Did you know fresh sweet corn is delicious raw? This simple, surprisingly flavorful salad is proof. Perfect for BBQs, picnics, or a quick lunch.

🌶 3 Bean Corn Salsa

Three kinds of beans, lots of vegetables, and ready in just 15 minutes. Serve it as a dip, a side dish, or stuff it into tortillas and call it tacos. It's always a hit.

🍝 Creamy Sweet Corn Pasta

Sweet summer corn in a creamy, dreamy sauce that comes together in under 30 minutes. This one is absolutely worth making while corn is at its peak.

🍲 Summer Corn Chowder

Fresh, flavorful, and so satisfying. Grab a spoon and savor summer in a bowl.

🍛 Creamy Curried Corn Soup

Vibrant, warming, and ready in 30 minutes. The buttery sweetness of fresh corn with a little kick of curry — trust me on this one.

Enjoy!

Photo collage of four dairy-free fall coffee drinks.

Hi, Reader, Fall coffee season is here and the Starbucks menu is calling. I hear you. Those drinks are delicious — but $7 a pop adds up fast. And heads up if you're vegan: the Pumpkin Spice syrup contains dairy, meaning even an oat milk swap won't make it vegan. The good news? You can make these fall flavors at home in about 5 minutes — completely dairy-free and incredibly delicious. Maybe even better. 😄 ☕ Harvest Oat Pumpkin Latte This is the cozy fall latte you've been waiting for. Made...

Hi, Reader, Can you feel it? That little hint of something in the air? The days are still warm, but there's a subtle shift happening — a crispness in the morning, a golden tint to the light, and suddenly all I want to do is reach for apples and butternut squash instead of corn and zucchini. We're in that sweet spot between summer and fall, and honestly? It's one of my favorite times of year to eat. These five salads were made for exactly this moment. Some are light and fresh to hold onto...
