Mexican Corn Dip Recipe Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Sour Cream
  • 1 cup Mayonnaise
  • 2 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • 5-6 Green Onions, chopped
  • 1 Jalapeno, minced (optional)
  • 1 4 oz. can Roasted Green Chillies, chopped
  • 2 12 oz. can Mexi-Corn, drained
  • 3/4 teaspoon cumin
  • 3/4 garlic powder
  • 3/4 creole seasoning

Easy Mexican Corn Dip Recipe ingredients in a bowl

In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients.

The jalapeno pepper is completely optional, but I highly recommend it.

The Mexi-corn in found next to the regular canned corn. Don’t forget to drain the water off of the Mexi-corn. The dip will be too ‘loose’ if you don’t drain the water off of the corn.

Allow the dip to chill out in the refrigerator for at least an hour. Over night is best but it is rare I can wait that long.

Frito Chips

I am a huge fan of the Fritos Scoops! The shape is perfect and the corn crunch is the perfect compliment to this dip. Also…get the party size bag….you will need it.

But if you can’t find Fritos Scoops! go for a cup shaped corn chip. I have done traditional tortilla chips and while they are good, and will work in a pinch, a corn chip is NEEDED for this recipe.

Truth be told, I don’t normally garnish the dip with shredded cheese and extra sliced green onions BUT for the sake of pretty pictures, I did just this once.

Another Mexican inspired recipe:

This recipe for Mexican shrimp cocktail shooters is a guaranteed run away hit of an appetizer. Perfectly cooked sous vide shrimp married with crisp cucumber, juicy mango, bright cilantro, tangy fresh lime juice, sweet corn and the connivence of store bought cocktail sauce. Tossing back a few of these shooters is a delicious way to start any party.

  1. I love this! My mom use to make something similar. I prefer the fresh corn over the canned corn.
