• Ingredients: 11
• Yields: 0.75 cup
• Serves: 2-4

ingredients

• 2 ear corn (white or yellow)
• 1 low-fat ricotta cheese
• 236.59 ml part-skim mozzarella cheese (Shredded)
• 59.14 ml basil (Chopped)
• 354.88 ml broccoli (Small florets)
• 4 green onions, thinly sliced (Whole Scallions)
• 2.46 ml garlic powder
• 1.23 ml salt
• 1.23 ml pepper
• 354.88-473.18 ml romaine lettuce (Chopped)
• 1-2 cherry tomatoes

directions

1. Separate corn from cob and place kernels in a large bowl.
2. Add remaining ingredients of Ricotta Cheese, Mozzarella Cheese, Basil, Broccoli, Green Onions with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Lay down a thick bed of Romaine Lettuce and place approx 3/4 (more or less) cup of the mixture on top of the lettuce. Garnish with one or two small cherry tomatoes. Serve Immediately. The mixture keeps well in a tightly closed container in the fridge for up to three to four days. Keep mixture separately from lettuce until ready to serve.
4. Useful Tip: To remove kernels from cob, stand the uncooked cob upright on stem end and take a sharp, thin knife to slice in a downward motion in a shallow baking dish until all the corn has been removed from the ear. This will help keep the corn in a central location. This technique also produces whole kernels that are good for adding to the salad.
