  • ½ cup reduced‑fat feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons thinly sliced red onion
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

  2. Brush the corn and the cut sides of the zucchini with the olive oil.
  3. Grill the corn and zucchini for 5‑7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are soft. Let them cool a little.
