Hello Mexican Street Corn … Where exactly have you been all my life?

Wow let me tell you I could honestly eat this everyday. This has to be one of my favourite things I have made lately. Its insanely delicious and takes little effort to come together.

Today my in laws arrived here in Bonaire to stay with us for a couple months and his brother was suppose to arrive as well but got stuck in Toronto. Apparently there was a huge Blizzard on the East Coast today and a ton of planes were grounded. I hate flying especially in the winter case for reasons exactly like this.

As for the weather down here, its been hot! The next two weeks down here its Carnival which we are super excited about and I think we need to invest into a large umbrella if we are going to sit on the street all day and watch the parades. My friends step mom has a food stand she is setting up selling Filipino food where we are going to camp out next too and load up on Lumpias

So, for Christmas this year I got a couple new cookbooks to add to my ever growing collection and one of the recipe that I came across was for Mexican Street Corn. I have seen the recipe countless times but for some reason never cooked it before. Its simple with only a handful of ingredients but wow just it pack a lot of punch. Also, I think that I am going to be one of those people that has 1000 cookbooks when Im older just taking up ALL of the space on the shelf. I have a cookbook collecting problem what can I say

I made this dish when my boyfriend was out of town on Business and ended up eating all three pieces that I made for lunch and thought to myself

“Did I really just eat 3 pieces of corn for lunch? Yes, yes I did.”

We actually eat so much corn when we go back to Vancouver in the Summer as BC grows the best Corn in the worlds. And no I am not joking about this it is a proven fact. I don’t know where its been proven but I am sure there is some survey done somewhere out there.

As Donald Trump might say “Its the best, the Greatest. Period! Its the best corn grown in the world. Its the best.” hahaha

This Mexican Street corn is also ….

1. Super Simple
2. Full of Flavour
3. Refreshing
4. Light
5. Delicious
6. Crave Worthy

And if you are on the East Coast right now suffering through the blizzard then you really need to have something bright and tastes like the tropics. In the summertime it would be great to grill the corn but if you have an indoor grill pan or even just a frying pan it works great as well

Any don’t feel like you have to eat three pieces to yourself but no one is judging you if you do
