College football is BACK and this Mexican street corn dip is the perfect addition to your tailgate or watch party. This dip is served cold but I think it would be delicious warm too…maybe I’ll try that next time. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

 

MEXICAN STREET CORN DIP

(Serves 8-10)

•2 C of corn. For added flavor, grill the corn (I used a frozen roasted corn from Trader Joe’s to save time)

•1 jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped (feel free to throw in the seeds if you want the extra heat)

•3 Tbsp cilantro, finely chopped

•1 1/2 tsp chili powder ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

•1 Tbsp mayo

• 1 tsp salt

• 1/2 lime, juiced

• 3/4 C cojita cheese (feta works well too if you can’t find cojita)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir until combined. Taste and adjust seasonings to your liking (i added extra lime and chili powder because i like a lot of flavor). Sprinkle lightly with chili powder and cilantro before serving for a pretty presentation. Serve immediately with tortilla chips.
