Grilled corn & Poblano Guacamole

I. Love. Guacamole.

Let me repeat.

I. LOVE. Guacamole.

Ok, now that I have confessed my love, let me tell you I have recently found a delicious recipe for... You guessed it. Guacamole! 💃 

It's hard to get a good pic of guacamole I decided... Just trust me. It's good.

Ok, so here is what you'll need:

3 has avocados

1 tsp garlic, minced

1/4 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 lime, juiced

1 tbsp cilantro 

1 poblano pepper, grilled and diced 

1 corn on cob, grilled until slightly charred and kernels removed

Combine all ingredients into medium bowl. I like my avocado with chunks so I used a potato masher and then mixed it all up with a spoon. 

Serve with tortilla chips and enjoy!

Fire Roasted Corn Salsa

Charred corn and poblanos from the grill give this salsa great roasted flavors! You can control the level of heat you want with the amount of jalepenos you use, or none at all for a sweet corn salsa! This salsa goes perfect with chips or in shrimp tacos!

Ingredients:

3 poblano peppers, sliced in half and seeds removed

2 ears of corn

1 red bell pepper, diced

1/2 cup cilantro, chopped

1 tsp salt

1 tsp pepper

Juice of 1/2 lime

1/2 of 4oz can jalepenos, or less depending on how much fire you like! 

(I used half, it was very spicy and I like spicy. I think 1/4 of the can might be the perfect amount so I will try that next time)

Instructions:

1. Heat grill.

2. Once ready, spray corn with olive oil spray and season with salt & pepper.

3. Place corn and poblanos on grill. Cook on all sides until slightly charred.

4. Meanwhile, add red pepper and cilantro into a medium bowl. Add salt and pepper

5. Remove from grill. Allow corn to cool. Dice peppers and cut kernels off cob.

6. Add corn and poblanos into bowl with other ingredients. Mix well. Add lime juice and taste for season. Adjust with salt and pepper if needed. 

7. Serve immediately or chill in fridge.
