CHEESY GRILLED CORN"Corn on the cob is always a crowd pleaser--add creamy cheese, and everyone will want seconds. Our kid testers thought these were fantastic."
8 ears fresh corn, husk on
1/2 stick (1.4 cup) butter
6 oz crumbled feta cheese
Preheat grill to medium high. Pull most of husk and silk from corn, leaving a thin layer to prevent burning.
Grill corn in center of grill about 12 minutes, turning often. (The husk will shrink, and some kernels will turn brown.) Remove corn to a tray and peel back husks.
Cool slightly, then rub each ear with butter. Spoon feta over each ear and, with the back of the spoon, press the cheese firmly into the corn, filling the space between the kernels. Repeat until all ears are covered.
HOW KIDS CAN HELP:Count ears of corn; peel husks; crumble cheese.
Yield: 8 servings
