2 ears sweet corn
2 T. olive oil
2 T. rosemary
2 cloves minced garlic
4 oz. fresh mozzarella
2 oz. gorgonzola

STEPS - GRILLED SWEET CORN PIZZAS

1) Shuck the corn and remove any silks still left. Rub the corn with 1/2 T. olive oil and place on the grill. Cook, turning occasionally until charred, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from the heat, let cool slightly, then remove the kernels from the cob.

Pour onto a large pan and bake at 400 degrees for 30-40, flipping the fries halfway through the total baking time.
