Meal: | Grilling Easy (WoW (Watching our Waists)) |
1 | whole | corn on the cob |
0.5 | cup | tomatoes, cherry |
0.5 | small | pepper, green |
0.125 | medium | onion, red |
1 | medium | mango |
1 | Tb | lime juice |
0.5 | Tb | garlic, chopped |
0.5 | Tb | vinegar, rice |
1 | Tb | oil, olive |
1 | Tb | cilantro, chopped |
1 | pinch | salt and pepper to taste |

Husk corn, roast on grill for 7 -9 minutes until browned but not burnt. Cut corn from cob. Cut tomatoes in half, cut pepper and mango into bite size pieces. Slice onion very thinly. Place all in a bowl. Add oil, lime, cilantro and vinegar. Stir and let marinate for 1/2 hour. Salt and pepper to taste.
Note: To remove corn from cob try using a bundt (tube cake) pan, place the pan right side up on the counter, place ear of corn resting in hole in middle of the pan. Use a sharp knife to cut kernels from cob; the bowl of the bundt pan will catch all the corn.
Note: Buy mangoes and avocados that are not fully ripe, they will be easier to cut. Put limejuice on avocados as soon as possible to avoid them turning brown.
