With the temps warming, it’s also the beginning of “fire up the grill” season, which is the perfect time to give this Grilled Watermelon With Sweet Corn and Balsamic Drizzle recipe from Birds Eye a go. These fresh summer flavors make an excellent topper for a salad or a side for a BBQ meal, and will make picnics a breeze! The mint will keep your dish sweet and smooth, and if you like, add a little cilantro for an extra pop of fresh. You could also spice it up with some fresh jalapeño.
Pro Tip: Grill until marked and warmed through, but still crunchy – about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the rinds before serving.
