Corny can be good!

Summer corn is so sweet! We use it in so many ways but this is the latest thanks to Ben. We love wings of all persuasions...but we are trying to trim down. This corn has all the flavors of those greasy, tasty wings... without too many calories. Grill the corn (we did 3 ears) on a grill pan or on the grill outside if you can brave the heat. Make sure to rotate the ears so as not to scorch them:) Meanwhile whisk 6 TBs of butter into 4 TBs of buffalo sauce. When the corn has some nice char to it, pull it off and brush with the sauce. Sprinkle with celery salt and dot with blue cheese. You even get the celery and blue cheese flavor of the typical wing experience. This is so tangy and savory! If you don't like the pungent flavor of blue cheese, try some queso fresco or a small drizzle of ranch dressing instead. We made it with grilled chicken and roasted broccoli. Sure, sure corn is kind of a carb... But it's a vegetable too, right?
