By Ally @allykitchen

If you love kale, then you're gonna go bonkers over this tuscan kale with watercress and roasted corn! I mean it's beyond amazingly deeelish!

Corn Recipe

I'm not sure if this is a corn recipe, a kale recipe, a watercress recipe or all of them together! But, whether corn's in season or not, you gonna love this one!

Summer fresh corn is the best. I like to buy lots of it, shuck, coat with some olive oil then put on a hot outdoor grill. Once it cools, I cut it off the cob, put it in freezer bags and it goes in the freezer for those winter months when we're longing for the freshness of corn! So, like gold, I ration my char roasted corn during the winter months, and this recipe just makes me feel like I'm back at the farmer's market picking out the best of what nature has to offer.

Best Corn Recipe

You can always make a best corn recipe year round. Why? Well, because you can use frozen corn from the store. Just let it thaw some, then grill it in a really HOT cast iron skillet with just a little butter. Yep, let those kernels of goodness get some brown charring on them because that just explodes the sweet sugars and flavors of the kernels!

Here's another of my favorite corn recipes!

How to Use Watercress in a Recipe

Figuring out how to use watercress in a recipe is not different than any other green you work with. If you throw spinach in your chicken noodle soup, then you can use watercress. Sure it's great for salads, but that's a no brainer. If you sautee greens for breakfast and then put a steamed egg on the greens, why not try watercress. Like spinach and other leafy greens, it wilts down to about nothing, but it's so worth it nutrition wise1
