For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the corn before adding it to the salad. The smoky char adds a delightful complexity. If you don't have fresh tomatoes, high-quality canned diced tomatoes can be substituted. Be sure to drain them well. A pinch of red pepper flakes can add a subtle kick to this dish. Consider adding other fresh herbs like oregano or thyme for a more complex flavor profile.
