Naptime Notes

Naptime Recipe Serving ideas

It is always helpful when salads can be made ahead of time, especially when the flavor gets better after it sits.

Naptime Stopwatch

The longest part about making this is the boiling the corn. After that it is simply a matter of assembling the ingredients and giving it a good store.

Naptime Reviews

Everyone loves this salad, especially people looking for a great gluten-free dish. Even my daughter seems to adore this, though the last time she ate it she picked out the onion.
