Contest-Winning Grilled Corn Salsa image

Nothing beats the flavor of grilled vegetables, and this is a super way to use your garden bounty. I grill the veggies anytime I'm grilling something else, then whip up the salad and put it in the fridge to marinate. It's even better the next day. -Teri Kman Laporte, Colorado
