Tender greens, raw sweet corn, the sour of a few tomatoes and the woodsy squash blossom flavor make this salad deliciously beautiful. And, because the flavors are so big it only needs salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon to dress it. Anything else would be a big mistake.

This sounds deadly even with the Greek yogurt. I agree, yogurt is a great replacement for sour cream – I use it all the time. Most people never know! Great recipe!
