We really liked the flavor, but the sauce was really thin and runny. I think next time I will cut down on the sour cream. I will make again with my adjustments. Thanks for sharing this with us. Wendy

Used 2 cups each of frozen corn & frozen peas for this salad, then followed the recipe for a wonderful tasting treat! Definitely a keeper! [Tagged, made & reviewed in the New Zaar Stars tag game]

I did half the recipe. My baby Lou loved this. He was asking for more. I used no-salt canned corn niblets. In the dressing, I didn't use salt, pepper and garlic powder. This is delicious Kit :) This could be even better with fresh corn. Thanks :) Made for Zaar Star Game.

I wish I could say this was wonderful but my guests ignored this dish; I felt like it had too much onion, too much vinegar, and was too creamy.
