- 1/3 cup water
- 1 tablespoon bottled barbecue sauce
Preparation

Helpful hints
- 1 medium ear of fresh corn yields 3/4 to 1 cup of corn kernels. You can also use frozen or low-sodium canned corn.
- 1 medium-sized zucchini yields 1 cup sliced.
- Julienne means to cut in thin, long strips.
- Compare labels to select commercial barbeque sauce with the lowest sodium content.
