- Boil the frozen corn in hot, salted water or microwave until it becomes tender.
- For fresh vegetables, add lettuce, broccoli, mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, avocado, red onions, celery, or bell peppers. The more veggies, the better. Add seasonal produce.
- Instead of yogurt, sour cream or Greek yogurt can be used for the dressing.
- You can add a pinch of garlic and onion powder if desired for the dressing.
- Storebought ranch dressing can also be used, but note that homemade is fresh and healthier, customized to your taste buds and dietary needs.
- You can add roasted seeds, nuts, or crispy bacon bits for the crunch.
