Instructions
Wash and thoroughly dry all vegetables to remove any dirt or residue.

Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the bowl.
Peel the cucumber if desired, then slice it into thin half-moons and add to the salad.
Peel and julienne the carrots into thin strips, or use a grater if preferred. Add them to the mix.
Remove the stem and seeds from the red bell pepper, then dice it into small pieces and toss into the bowl.
Add the cooked or canned sweet corn kernels (drain the corn if using canned).
Peel and thinly slice the red onion, then separate the slices into rings and add them to the salad.

In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey (or maple syrup), salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
