Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 3 cups whole kernel corn canned and drained
  • 2 cups Fritos corn chips slightly crushed
  • 1 cup red bell pepper diced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice about 1 lime
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper to taste
  • 0.25 cup green onions chopped

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • In a large bowl, combine corn, Fritos, bell pepper, cheddar cheese, and green onions.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, lime juice, ground cumin, salt, and pepper until well blended.
  • Pour the dressing over the corn mixture and toss to coat evenly.
  • Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 hour to let the flavors meld.

Notes

For a spicier kick, add some diced jalapeños or a sprinkle of cayenne pepper. Best served immediately so the Fritos remain crunchy.
