A Sweet Summer Favorite
Sweet grilled corn is one of my absolute favorite things about summer. They’re just something so enjoyable about biting into corn on the cob that’s been charred a bit on the outside and heated to bring out even more of the juicy sweetness. This Grilled Corn Salsa has been on repeat and everyone loves it! Dip in with Baked Tortilla Chips and it’s heaven.

It makes for such a great dip, side dish or topping. We serve it alongside guacamole and chips for taco night, drizzle it over grilled steaks or fish, and even top our salads and nachos with it. It’s so fresh and flavorful!

Unbeatable Combinations
The way the sweetness from the corn and roasted tomatoes comes together with all the citrus and spice from the cilantro, red onion, jalapeño, garlic and lime juice is incredible. Irresistible! The pan you roast the tomatoes in becomes the bowl for mixing all the ingredients together in.
It’s amazing how the juices released from roasting the tomatoes brings so much flavor to this salsa.
