Street Corn
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 tablespoon minced garlic clove
1/4 lime juice
2 tablespoons chia seeds
1 tablespoons ground mustard
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 ounces vegan mozzarella shreds
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 precooked corn cob, husk and silk removed.
Directions:
Heat up your grill or cast iron pot to a high enough temperature before placing the precooked corn cob. Cook until slightly charred on all sides. In a large bowl combine the rest of the ingredients together and mix it light. Transfer the corn to the bowl mixture, toss to coat and serve.
Serves 5
Notes: I used Trader Joe's vegan cheese (mozzarella style shreds). If you like, you can skip the boiling corn process and start the recipe with raw corn.

Daniela was born and raised in Timisoara, Romania, where she spent her teenage years working as a fashion model for Elite. She has appeared in print ads and numerous television commercials in Romania and modeled for various brands in Germany and the U.S. These days, she's working behind the lens as a photographer's assistant and videographer. And when she's not hosting dinner parties for her vegan friends, Daniela dedicates her time to donating and participating in various fundraising events to benefit animals, in particular Last Chance For Animals (LCA).
Daniela is proud to be living and working in America, which in the years following the collapse of Nicolae Ceausescu's Communist regime seemed like only a dream. Despite living through such a difficult socioeconomic transition, Daniela recalls her childhood years spent with family in her grandmother's garden and kitchen as among the happiest of her life.
Long before "farm to table" was revived in America, Daniela was enjoying the culinary practice with her grandmother on a daily basis - growing, harvesting and cooking her own healthy and nutritious plant-based dishes. After moving to Los Angeles in 2010 and discovering the Hollywood vegan lifestyle, Daniela incorporated much of what she learned back home into dishes she cooks for her vegan friends.
Now, she's thrilled to be sharing her vegan recipes and cooking tips with HNGN's readers, who will be salivating in no time.
