Colorful Corn Salsa

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 30 min. Grill: 20 min. + cooling YIELD: about 2-1/2 cups.
This colorful salsa is worth the extra time it takes to grill the ears of corn. The flavor goes well with barbecued meats, but it's also tasty served with chips. —Nancy Horsburgh, Everett, Ontario

Ingredients

  • 2 medium ears sweet corn in husks
  • 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro

  • 1 teaspoon minced seeded jalapeno pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
