Fiesta Corn (or maybe you know it as Confetti Corn or Corn Dip) is made from roasted fresh corn, lots of fresh veggies, and gets a tangy zest from fresh lime juice. It can be served as a dip with tortilla or corn chips, a side salad, or even as a salsa served with grilled meat. How would you serve your Fiesta Corn??Fiesta CornI make mine with fresh grilled corn, but if you prefer, or don’t have the time to grill the corn, you could substitute with frozen corn. Simply heat a large skillet, drizzle a bit of olive oil, and “toast” the corn to lightly char the kernels. Given the choice, I always will choose to grill fresh corn. In fact, it’s the only way we eat our corn on the cob now!!

All husked, seasoned and ready for the grill: Fiesta CornGrill the corn over med/high heat, turning it often, for approximately 15 minutes. Cooking time will vary based on the heat of your grill. 

Just look how delicious this corn looks!!Fiesta CornWhile the corn is grilling, prep your veggies. Give them all a small dice, especially the jalapeño. 

  • red bell pepper
  • orange bell pepper
  • yellow bell pepper
  • red onion
  • jalapeño
  • fresh cilantro (not pictured)
  • fresh garlic  
  • fresh lime juice

Fiesta CornAfter the corn is grilled and the veggies are chopped, it’s as simple as stirring them all together!

Pretty in pink! As soon as I unpacked my Valentine’s box, I knew I wanted to set a table using the small heart plates. I’ve had them for a year or two, and used them for appetizers and dessert, but never set them as a small salad plate. I searched through all my “pink” tableware and quickly realized that all pinks are not the same. I had variations of “pink” pink, “blush” pink, and “lavender” pink. It wasn’t working until I pulled it all together with the flowers. Your tip for the day is to mix and match, use what you have, and if it doesn’t work, go buy yourself some fresh flowers. #dishhoarderproblems

This White Chocolate Mocha was delicious! In fact, it was as good or better than I could have gotten at a coffee shop (and I didn’t have to leave the house). What’s your favorite coffee shop drink?

White Chocolate Sauce
•3-4 TBSP white chocolate chips
•1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
•½ cup low-fat (2%)milk
. . . . . . .
•Using a milk frother, add low-fat milk and condensed milk. Heat until hot and frothy.
•If you don’t have a frother, combine milk and condensed milk in a small saucepan. Heat slowly until hot, but not boiling. Stir regularly to prevent scorching.
•Add chocolate chips to hot milk, stir until melted and well combined.

White Chocolate Mocha
•Into a favorite mug, pour in a shot of espresso. Add a second shot if you prefer it stronger.
•Add (hot) White Chocolate Sauce to fill cup.
•Top with whipped cream (and sprinkles).

Sometimes a simple charcuterie board and a glass of bubbly (sparkly cider or champagne) is the perfect dinner! Fill your charcuterie board with your favorite meats, cheeses, veggies, nuts, breads or crackers, and few sweets and enjoy a quiet Valentines at home with those you love!
