Cue infomercial tagline - Are you tired of complicated recipes that demand your entire day and half your sanity? Of course you are. Who wouldn’t be? But don't worry, this recipe is the perfect antidote to those time-consuming kitchen nightmares. This dish practically makes itself, and if it doesn’t, well, at least you tried. The balsamic glaze and sweet, crisp corn tie everything together so effortlessly that you’ll wonder why you ever bothered with complex dishes. Just make it and DM me that I’m your favorite chef.

To create this masterpiece, you’ll need one large cucumber, three cups of halved cherry tomatoes, one ball of mozzarella pearls, one can of sweet corn, half a squeezed lemon, balsamic glaze, dried basil, garlic powder, and salt.

Start by grabbing a large cucumber and some cherry tomatoes, and chop them into bite-sized pieces. If you have to Google what “bite-sized” means, I promise I won’t judge. Throw these veggies into a large mixing bowl like you’re trying to impress someone with your culinary prowess. Next, toss in the mozzarella pearls and sweet corn. Yes, I know, it sounds complicated, but trust me, it’s as easy as it gets. Plus, there’s something oddly satisfying about dumping a can of corn into a bowl and calling it a day.

Now for the seasoning. Sprinkle in some dried basil, salt, and garlic powder like you know what you’re doing. For an added twist of “I’m so fancy,” squeeze half a lemon over the mix. Not only does it add a refreshing zing, but it also makes you look like you know a thing or two about flavor balance. Mix it all up and adjust the seasoning to your liking. Or don’t. This isn’t rocket science.

Finally, drizzle the whole thing with balsamic glaze. Feel free to use as much as you want because, let’s be real, balsamic glaze makes everything taste gourmet. Stand back and admire your creation. You’ve just made a Crisp Caprese Salad with Cucumber and Corn. Enjoy it while patting yourself on the back for conquering the kitchen with minimal effort. Bon appétit!
