Spicy, Sweet and Good to Eat!

This month, we are bringing you some food favorites of our own Abby Graham!

Abby is a member of Saxon's Wealth Management team with over 12 years of experience in the health and wellness industry. When she isn't helping members understand their benefits, she can be found sewing and quilting or out with her husband and son.

Her favorite place to be eat can be found in Mariemont. "The outside seating [at Dilly Café] is perfect on a nice night and/or when we have our little one with us.  They generally have a band playing, the food is excellent, and the beer and wine list are great!  Their crab cakes, wings and burgers are my favorites!"

At home, the family favorite is Corn Avocado Salsa. "My husband and I make this together since part of it is grilled and the rest is just chopping!  It’s best in the summer when the tomatoes are ripe and the corn is sweet."

Here's what you'll need:

  • 1 ripe tomato
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 ear of corn
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 sweet corn
  • 1 jalapeno
  • 2-3 garlic cloves
  • 1 ripe lime
  • salt to taste

 

Grill the tomato until the skin is cracked and peeling off.  Cut the avocado and grill it face down for about 5 minutes.  Grill the corn until it is cooked all the way.  In the meantime, finely chop the onion, jalapeno, cilantro and garlic cloves.  Squeeze ½ of the lime over onion, jalapeno, cilantro and garlic combination.

Once tomato, avocado, and corn are finished grilling, cut corn off of the cob, and peel skin off of tomato.  Dice tomato and avocado and add to chopped mix.  Add salt to taste and serve warm with tortilla chips!

 

Sounds like a great dish Abby! Thank you!
