Mexican Street Corn

I've seen this everywhere and I can't wait to try it. One recipe I've found requires Mayo and I'm just not a fan of Mayo at all (plus it contains alot of fat....) anywho this one uses sour cream instead of mayo.


Ingredients
  • 6 ears corn, husks and silks removed (you can also use canned or frozen and serve in a bowl)
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 lime
  • 1/4 cup low fat sour cream
Instructions
  1. Combine chili powder, salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a small bowl.
  2. Place corn on sprayed grill rack.
  3. Cover and cook 12 minutes over medium-high heat, turning occasionally.
  4. Squeeze juice from lime and mix with sour cream.
  5. Drizzle over corn and sprinkle with spice mixture.

Enchilada Dip

Whenever a recipe calls for ground beef I swap it out for turkey, but you can use ground beef in this recipe if you want. We've been doing this since 2007 and haven't really missed the ground beef. This is made in a crock pot and cooks 2-3 hours so it's great to make ahead. Just brown the beef and mix with other ingredients and place in the refrigerator. With my crock pot it comes in two pieces so you can detach the bowl from the heating element. Only problem is it has a design on the side that makes it not as easy to clean.

2lbs  Ground turkey
3/4 cup onion, chopped
1 cup celery chopped
16 oz shredded cheddar cheese
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 10oz can enchilada sauce

brown turkey, drain (this is the great thing about turkey there isn't much if anything to drain) combine turkey with all other ingredients in crock pot, cover and cook on high for 2-3 hours stirring occasionally. Serve with tortilla chips.
