Nothing beats the flavor of grilled vegetables, and this is a super way to use your garden bounty. I grill the veggies anytime I'm grilling something else, then whip up the salad and put it in the fridge to marinate. It's even better the next day. —Teri Kman Laporte, Colorado

Ingredients

8 medium ears sweet corn, husks removed

Took this to a potluck picnic and it was a great hit. Wonderful combination of flavors.

I've been growing acres of sweet corn for our farm market and I can tell you from experience you do not fill a pot with water to cook sweet corn. An inch or 2 will do with a tall pot and tight fitting lid. You may also skip this step in this recipe. Just husk the corn and grill as directed. Saves a lot of time and effort and doesn't overcook the corn and kill all the nutrients.
