I was having the kids and Bill’s folks over for dinner recently and I was thinking “Mexican”.  They all seem to enjoy tacos and I like that we can easily enjoy the same ingredients in a salad form.  I had five ears of corn hanging out in the fridge and thought I needed to do something with them.  We had recently had a corn salad at my friend Heather’s, so I came up with my own version based on some ingredients that I had on hand vtech kidizoom kid 2 bilder herunterladen.  It was quite tasty and everyone seemed to really enjoy it!

Start by preparing your corn to be roasted on the grill.  Remove husks and silks from the corn.  Rinse and dry well.  Rub the butter that has been softened to room temperature on one side of the ears of corn.  Season with Salt and pepper.  Create a foil pouch, sealing in the ears of corn before placing onto a hot grill; butter side up.  Grill five minutes on each side of the pouch and then remove the ears from the foil pack to scorch somewhat spiele für den pc kostenlos herunterladen.

Cut corn from cob and combine with chopped onion, jalapeno, tomatoes and rinsed black beans.  Toss with chopped cilantro and as much dressing to your liking.  Serve chilled.  This is great as a side dish, but is also enjoyed more like a salsa and can be added to tacos, salads and more sims download 3.

Enjoy!
