Corn on the Cob

How delicious is it to take a bit into some juicy corn on the cob in the summer heat? Mmmm

Corn is a great addition to summer BBQs. It’s high in vitamin C, folate and believe it or not, protein with 5g in 1 cup. It’s also loaded with lutein, which can help slow macular degeneration. Let’s get cooking!

Ingredients:

  • 1/4c unsalted butter, softened (or your choice of vegan butter)
  • 1 tbs chopped parsley
  • 2 medium garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp rosemary
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 4 ears of corn, husks removed

Instructions:

  1. If you want to do this in the oven, set it to 425 degrees
  2. Stir together butter, parsley, garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper in a bowl until all is combined
  3. Spread about a tablespoon of herb butter on each cob
  4. Wrap each in aluminum foil and place on baking sheet
  5. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, turn cob, then bake for another 10-12 minutes

Serve
