How to Prepare Bohemian Summer Salad with Grilled Corn [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Start the dressing by whisking the mustard, one tablespoon of agave, and balsamic vinegar; while whisking, gradually add olive oil until it's emulsified. Adjust agave amount, adding more if desired for a sweeter taste, then season it with salt and black pepper.
Chill the dressing in the refrigerator while you make the rest of the salad.
Bring a large pasta pot full of water to boil. When water is boiling, drop the corn in the water. Cook it for 15 minutes or until corn is cooked.
Drain the corn in a colander and allow it to cool down.
Brush the corn with a little bit of olive oil and season it with salt and pepper.
Place it on a barbecue or in a preheated pan and cook it, turning the cobs until they're lightly toasted. Transfer this to the serving dish and sprinkle it with chopped parsley and smoked paprika.
In a large salad bowl, assemble the salad, toss together the salad leaves, strawberries, blueberries, nectarines, radishes, tomatoes, and vegan feta cheese.
Stir in the mix sprouts.
Add half of the vinaigrette and toss the salad gently.
Finally, top the salad with sliced avocado (if you're using them), nuts, and seeds and serve it with the remaining vinaigrette and grilled corn on the side.
