Directions
Build medium-sized fire in a charcoal grill, or heat your gas grill to high. Spray your grill gate with Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil Spray.
Combine chile powder and cayenne in a small bowl.
Gently add the corn cobs to the grill, turning them occasionally. Grill the corn until they're cooked through and slightly charred, about 10 minutes.
Remove the corn cobs from the grill, and immediately brush each ear with Primal Kitchen Classic Mayo or Whip Dressing & Spread.
Top each cob with a sprinkle of fresh ricotta cheese and a pinch of the chile powder mixture.
Squeeze lime over each ear of corn, and serve. Enjoy!
