Kid-Friendly Corn Salsa

Kid-Friendly Corn Salsa
I've labeled this kid-friendly because I've purposely omitted green onions and hot 'n spicy chilies. All it takes is a package of frozen corn (thawed overnight in the fridge), a seedless cucumber, tomatoes, salt and lime juice. Tossed together in a bowl, it makes a perfect side dish for a picnic or Mother's Day brunch. If this is being made for adults, all optional ingredients are a must to bump up the flavor.

1 (16 oz.) pkg. frozen corn kernels, thawed
1 beefsteak tomato, diced
1 seedless cucumber, peeled & diced
1 shallot, diced (optional)
1 green chili, diced (optional)
2 small or 1 large sweet red pepper, diced (optional)
salt to taste
juice of 1 lime

Toss it all in a bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
