1 Preheat grill to medium. Lightly spray tomatoes, corn and onion slices with olive oil, then sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and cayenne. Place vegies on grill. Cook tomatoes for about 2 to 3 minutes per side until tender but not mushy. Cook onion for 5 minutes per side until tender, and corn for about 15 to 20 minutes, rotating every 5 minutes until tender. (Vegetables should all have some browned spots.) Remove from grill and let cool for 10 minutes.
2 Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine water and salt. Place over high heat until boiling. Add couscous, cover, and turn off heat. Let sit for 5 minutes.
3 Peel tomatoes and discard skins. Chop tomatoes and onions. Cut corn kernels from ear.
4 Transfer couscous to a medium bowl. Stir with vegies, lime juice, coriander, olive oil, and garlic. Season with additional salt and cayenne if desired.

Tip
If you don't have olive oil spray, spoon about 1/2 tsp extra virgin olive oil into a small bowl and brush it sparingly over vegies before seasoning.
