Grilled Tri-Tip with Chipotle Butter slathered Corn and Cumin scented Sweet Potato Wedges

I know.. HUGE title!! But well there are 2 recipes in this meal, so it needed to all be in there!! It was a Weight Watchers night, So both recipes came from the Weight Watchers book Hit the Spot. It is a Great little book that we picked up last fall, and also gave as a Christmas gift. Some very tasty recipe's in it! First.. my favorite of the whole meal, the Corn! OMG!! I will never ever ever boil an ear of corn again, NEVER! 10 min on a grill is amazing, juicy and crisp and really just amazing. The Chipotle butter was awesome too, it added a killer spice and we loved it! The Tri-Tip grilled was fantastic too, really the whole meal was bomb! So why keep talking.. lets just get to posting the recipes for you all!!

Cumin-Scented Sweet Potato Wedges: 1 pt per serving ( about 4 wedges)

2 large sweet potatoes (10 oz each), peeled, each cut into 8 wedges

3. Arrange the potatoes, cut side down, on the grill rack and grill until tender and crispy in spots, about 7 minutes on each side.
** Now.. I totally didn't do all this lol.. I heated my oven to about 400 and roasted them instead. but we all agreed that we want to make pure the recipe, we think they would be even tastier!!
