my friend amelia (@piste_adjacent) used to make a divine recipe for me similar to this one but it was quite the process to create so I developed an easier take on one of my favorite summer salads! GRILLED CORN, ROMAINE, AVOCADO AND BLUE CHEESE SALAD Ingredients 4 ears corn, husks removed 2 to 3 romaine hearts 1 whole avocado, diced 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus a little for grilling 2 tablespoons capers, drained 2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1/3 cup blue cheese crumbles Get the corn on a hot grill and let it really char, turning every few minutes until you’ve got color all the way around. While the corn is grilling, make the dressing. Mix the Greek yogurt, balsamic, olive oil, capers, chives, garlic powder, salt and pepper until creamy. Once the corn is beautifully charred, move it to the top rack. Put the romaine on the grill and give it just a quick kiss of fire. You want some blackened char while it still has plenty of crunch. Take everything off the grill. Chop the romaine, cut the corn from the cob and dice the avocado. Toss the romaine, corn and avocado with the creamy dressing and blue cheese crumbles. Smoky corn, fire kissed romaine, creamy avocado, tangy dressing and blue cheese. The perfect salad to serve with steak and béarnaise. #cookwithme #summersalad #steak
