Author Notes: We CAN’T get enough of summer’s tomato haul.
And we honestly thought there was nothing better than hulking heirlooms dotted with salted and pepper, and maybe a light drizzle of balsamic. But then we discovered whipped Crazy Feta, and we went so far as to introduce charred corn. We’re just wild like that. You’re welcome. —CAVA

Ingredients
-
3
ears of corn, husk and silks removed

2
tablespoons butter, softened

3-4
heirloom tomatoes, sliced into 1/2-inch slices

1
container Cava Crazy Feta, softened at room temperature

1/2
lime, juiced

-
1
bunch fresh basil, rinsed and patted dry
Directions
- For the whipped feta, pulse Crazy Feta, cream cheese, and lime juice in a food processor until light and creamy.
