Recipe by Katie Lee Joel It's low-cal and filling—as in perfect for swimsuit season. I make it a day ahead so the veggies can marinate and the flavor pops.

Ingredients

Servings 8

4 cups (6 ears) fresh corn
1 package (16 ounces) frozen lima beans, thawed
2 cups green beans, blanched and cut into 1-inch pieces*
1 cup grape tomatoes, halved lengthwise
1/2 cup minced red onion
1 avocado, cut into chunks
1 jalapeño, seeded and minced

Instructions

In a bowl, toss together corn, lima beans, green beans, tomatoes, onion, avocado, jalapeño and basil. In a second bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, honey, salt and pepper. Add vinaigrette to salad and toss to coat. Refrigerate for an hour before serving to let it marinate, if you can stand to wait.

Why this Summery Confetti Salad works for PCOS

Lunch is where most PCOS meal plans either succeed or collapse. A meal like this Summery Confetti Salad that combines adequate protein, fibre-rich carbs, and fat keeps blood sugar stable for the rest of the workday and reduces the late-afternoon energy crash that drives sugar cravings around 3-4pm.
