I used frozen corn but you usually slice the corn off the cob. I sauteed some onions in butter and then added the corn with some salt and pepper and a Tbsp. of butter. I then added 1/3 cup of milk and let that cook into the corn. Added some parsley and yummy! It was really good.

That does sound good. I think I'll have to try that for the kids and Darren (I don't eat corn, love it, but it's one of the no no foods for me.)

Corn and tomato salad. Below is the recipe - by Mark Bittman. Took me only 20 minutes! 6 ears corn - cut off corn 3-5 slices bacon 2 large tomatoes 1 red onion 1-2 jalapenos or serranos, seeded and chopped 1 avocado (I didn't have one and it was still yummy!) Juice of 1-2 limes Cut bacon in small pieces and fry in large skillet. When almost crisp, add red onion (chopped). Saute 1-2 minutes, then add corn. Saute 5 minutes or so - until golden and starting to brown, but NOT brown. Put corn mix in a large bowl. Add chopped tomatoes, jalapenos and lime juice. Mix. Finally, gently mix in the avocado cut in chunks. Serve hot, lukewarm or room temp. This was fast and really good!

First time I've ever cut corn off the cob when it's raw - but definitely a recipe I'll make a lot when the tomatoes and corn are in season.

Do it yourself night - DH finished leftover fajitas; I grilled a chicken burger then put it between two corn tortillas w/a bit of cheese and grilled it in a really fat quesadilla. Turtle sundaes for dessert.

For my DH's birthday, I am cooking chicken with a honey/dijon mustard glaze, wild rice, grilled squash/zucchini, and pear halves topped with a dab of mayo, shredded cheese, and a cherry. Then later on Chocolate Cake and presents!

Thought we were doing salmon and corn on the cob, but DH came home hungry for Mexican. Now it's tacos de carne asada and chips and cheese.

The best seafood fishboil ever! DS and I are traveling, and the meal had shrimp, mussels, clams, spicy sausage, carrots, onions, corn on the cob AND red potatoes! The seasoning was fantastic. (not to mention I didn't have to cook OR do dishes!)

DS and I had THE BEST FOOD EVER today! We're vacation in the U.P. (Michigan) - and there is a tiny cafe near our hotel - maybe 8 tables, total. DS had nutella crepes this morning that were to die for. We went back for supper tonight and split a lobster pizza that was the most phenomenal pizza I've ever eaten. We topped it off w/ice cream crepes - mine had blackberries, his had chocolate and choc. chips. We're going back tomorrow for a late breakfast because there are so many other good things we want to try. (thing homemade granola, fabulous omelettes - and even granola pancakes!). I only wish we were staying another day because I'm dying to try their turkey/avocado/bacon crepe wrap! Sorry for the novel - but I'm seriously trying to figure out how to contact Guy and get him to go to this place on his Diners, Drive-ins and Dives Show!
