Grilled Corn Salad with Chili-Miso Dressing
I love making spinach salads because you can put the dressing on in advance and it won't wilt as quickly as lettuce. This Grilled Corn Salad with Chili-Miso Dressing takes your salad "out of the ordinary" category. The combination of chili and miso delivers spicy umami flavor. Truth be told, I cheated and bought already grilled frozen corn from Trader Joe's. I try to always have it in the freezer. It has a great smoky flavor.

Corn off the Cob with Lemon
Normally, I make corn with butter, lime juice and cayenne, which is my favorite way. Someone seems to have used up all the limes making various cocktails! So because I had a bowl of lemons, I created a new version - Corn off the Cob with Lemon. The sweetness of the corn is perfect with the tartness of the lemon.

Cheesy Spicy Zucchini and Corn Pie
I drove from Elkhart Indiana to Ann Arbor Michigan and took the back roads through Amish farm country and corn fields. I realized how much I love it and yet I would be bored out of my mind if I still lived here. All that corn reminded me of this Cheesy Spicy Zucchini and Corn Pie that I made a few weeks ago.

Beef Tamales with Red Chili Sauce
Every Christmas eve my mother-in-law served tamales and albondigas soup. She got her tamales from a local source in East Los Angeles. My friend asked if I wanted to make tamales with her. Absolutely! We corralled another friend, who actually knows what she’s doing and my daughter. We each brought our own filling. I made beef and we also had pork and chicken. I had made tamales in the past, but only one dozen. This time, we made 150! My friend said that you have to take a shot after every dozen is completed! Given that it was 10 am when we started, I only did 2 shots, and then there were those mimosas…. It was so much fun, that I want to do it every year.
