foodtvandme.com is the unofficial food network fansite with news, reviews, and my attempts at those great recipes you see on tv.

It’s historic.  I don’t give out many of these, but this recipe gets a 10.  I know I usually wait until the end of the blog to tell you my score, but this one is too good.  You have to try this one.  I mean it.  Father’s Day is this weekend and lots of people will be barbequeing.  This recipe is perfect to take to someone’s house as a side dish.  What is this amazing recipe?  Drum roll please…

Weekly Recipe Attempt:  Corn-Pimento Salad

I know what you’re thinking, “how is that an amazing salad?”  That’s what I thought at first.  I picked this recipe because I had all of those ingredients in my refrigerator.  (Don’t ask me why I had pimentos in my fridge.  Half the things I have in there are from some hair brained recipe gone awry.)

This is one of those great salads where no dressing is necessary.  You just toss it all together and viola!  Instant culinary genius!  It has is all.  It has color, and uniquness.  It uses up stuff you don’t really know what to do with after you make your main dish.  It tastes amazing.  A culinary moron couldn’t screw this up.  And, perhaps best of all, it’s healthy!

Once again, this recipe gets a 10.  This is foodtvandme’s highest honor.  Try it.  I swear it’s good.
