Tamale Pie

This Tamale Pie takes less then 5 minutes to throw it in a casserole dish! The Trader Joe's "tasting station" is a place for some culinary inspiration. It's where they hand out samples for you to try. I almost always buy whatever they are demoing. It was this tamale pie. I am not a big fan of polenta (unless it's crispy), but I have to say I really liked this dish. It's something you could have in your pantry. You could even make it vegetarian by using vegetarian chili instead of chicken or turkey. The original recipe calls for a jar of their Cowboy Caviar, but I actually used the corn salsa instead.

Roasted Corn with Lime and Manchego Cheese

My friend Jessica sent me this recipe a few years ago. I finally got around to making it! I have no idea why I waited so long. I will serve corn like this all the time. I roasted the corn earlier in the day, cut it off the cob and put it in a ziplock bag in the refrigerator. This makes it very fast to put together.

Spicy Corn Medallions

Spicy Corn Medallions

Spicy Corn Medallions is definitely my favorite way to eat corn. The spicy cayenne marries the sweetness of the corn and the tang of the lime juice. Please note – when slicing the corn into medallions, be very careful not to slice your fingers! It is easiest with a cleaver.
