Like "ceasar Chicken" Salad

Total Time: 15 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• 2 ears corn ( or yellow)
• 5/8 low-fat ricotta cheese
• 1 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese (shredded)
• 1/4 cup basil (chopped)
• 1 1/2 cups broccoli (small florets)
• 4 green onions, thinly sliced (whole scallions)
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1 1/2-2 cups romaine lettuce (chopped)
• 1 -2 cherry tomatoes

Recipe

• 1 separate corn from cob and place kernels in a large bowl.
• 2 add remaining ingredients of ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, basil, broccoli, green onions with garlic powder, salt and pepper. mix until well combined.
• 3 lay down a thick bed of romaine lettuce and place approx 3/4 (more or less) cup of the mixture on top of the lettuce. garnish with one or two small cherry tomatoes. serve immediately. the mixture keeps well in a tightly closed container in the fridge for up to three to four days. keep mixture separately from lettuce until ready to serve.
• 4 useful tip: to remove kernels from cob, stand the uncooked cob upright on stem end and take a sharp, thin knife to slice in a downward motion in a shallow baking dish until all the corn has been removed from the ear. this will help keep the corn in a central location. this technique also produces whole kernels that are good for adding to the salad.
