roasted bell peppers...take some bell peppers (all different colors) and quarter and seed them. Put them in a big ziploc with 3 cloves diced garlic, 1 tsp or so balsamic vinegar, 3 tbs of olive oil and salt and pepper. toss them up and let them marinate for 15 min to 3 hours. Put them skin side down on the grill (be careful...the oil will make the fire jump) and roast for about 3-5 minutes (until you see black streaks on the skins) sprinkle them with feta. YUM

Grilled Mexican Corn

Ingredients
4 ears corn
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1/4 cup freshly chopped cilantro leaves
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1 lime, juiced
Red chili powder, to taste
2 limes cut into wedges, for garnish

Directions

Remove the husks of the corn but leave the core attached at the end so you have something to hold onto. Grill the corn on a hot grill or cast iron griddle pan until slightly charred. Turn it so it gets cooked evenly all over. Mix the mayonnaise, sour cream and cilantro together. Grate the Parmesan in another bowl. While the corn is still warm slather with mayonnaise mix. Squeeze lime juice over the corn and shower with Parmesan. Season with chili powder and serve with extra lime wedges.

Foiled pack grilled shrimp. A favorite in our house:

Pull out some tinfoil and spread out your uncooked shrimp, drizzle some olive oil over them and either lime or lemon juice, and favorite seasoning. (I use perfect pinch lemon herb) Set on grill rack over low coals and cook through. Delicious and healthy.

inside out hamburgers or turkey burgers...

mix the meat with a little garlic powder, red pepper and black pepper. pound them really thin. put one patty and then whatever you want....cheese, bacon, green chiles, salsa, roast peppers (see above) and put another thin patty on top. Seal the edges...really tight....grill like normal. It really makes the burgers juicy and it is so fun to assemble!

How to make a Microwaved Baked Potato cook and taste like it was Baked in the oven without all the heat of an oven.

Wash potatoes, then puncture with a fork 2 times in the top, then take a knife and insert in each end approx 1 inch (this helps potato to cook more evenly).

Place in microwave and cook for approx. 8 to 10 minutes depending on how many potatoes you are cooking it may take a little longer. When potatoes are done immediately take out of microwave and wrap each potato in aluminum foil as you would if baking in the oven. Place on rack of oven and let set for 20 min.

This allows the potato to continue cooking & "Fluff up" without all the heat of turning the oven on. They will be more fluffy and taste just like an oven baked potato...And no one will know that it was cooked in the microwave!
