There’s a good chance you spent the holiday weekend indulging -- either at Taste of Beverly Hills, the L.A. Times Celebration of Food & Wine, your brother-in-laws’s barbecue or all three.

So Tuesday’s recipe of the day from the L.A. Times Test Kitchen is on the skinny side and celebrates taking advantage of fleeting seasonal produce: a garden corn and tomato salad.
