This sounds really, really good and so much healthier than slathering on butter!  I'm going to try this as soon as the good corn on the cob starts coming in...

Ingredients

Serves: Update

• 2 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons nonfat plain yogurt
• 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
• 4 ears corn, husked
• 4 tablespoons finely shredded Cotija (see Shopping Tip) or Parmesan cheese
• 1 lime, quartered

Directions

1. Preheat grill to medium-high.

2. Combine mayonnaise, yogurt and chili powder in a small bowl.

3. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until marked and tender, 8 to 12 minutes total. Spread each ear with 1 tablespoon of the sauce and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon Cotija (or Parmesan). Serve with lime wedges.

Shopping tip: Cotija cheese, also called queso añejo or queso añejado, is an aged Mexican cheese similar in texture and flavor to Parmesan. Find it near other specialty cheeses or in Mexican grocery stores.
