  2. Prepare the vegetables by dicing cucumber, halving cherry tomatoes, and chopping red onion. Combine with cooled corn in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Make the creamy dressing by whisking together mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, chili powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  4. Combine everything by pouring the dressing over the vegetables and corn. Gently toss to coat evenly.
  5. Add final touches by crumbling feta cheese on top and sprinkling with cilantro. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
