No matter what you want to call it, we love the flavor of fresh corn seasoned to perfection with the flavors of chile, cheese, and lime. We used to make Mexican Street Corn (Elotes) every year with fresh corn on the cob for any summer gathering we attended. However, this was a lot of work …
We love a good make ahead meal for our day of travel and a great option is a rotini pasta salad. I love rotini pasta for making a salad in advance. It is quick to cook and stands up well to sitting for a couple of days in the dressing without getting mushy. And it …
