Salad with peas corn eggs

Bright, beautiful, fresh, light, for every day! Salad with peas, corn and eggs is unusual in that both corn and peas are added to it at once, although they are usually found alone. I thought it would not be delicious, but in vain — the ingredients perfectly complemented each other, without dragging the taste on themselves.
