Grilled Corn on The Cob
With Memorial Day (and nicer weather) right around the corner, people everywhere will soon be dusting off their grills in anticipation of the summer picnic season!
There are plenty of great corn-on-the-cob recipes, but this recipe combines the sweetness of young corn with a kick of cilantro. Thus, it is buttery and flavorful without being fattening and bland.

This year's theme, "Take Action," is aimed at raising public awareness of self-management interventions that can improve arthritis symptoms and quality of life. For more information, CLICK HERE.
