Frito Corn Salad Recipe
Description
The salad base blends drained yellow corn with diced red and green bell peppers and shredded Colby jack cheese for creamy, sweet, and mild sharpness elements. The dressing unites mayonnaise, sour cream, and taco seasoning, imparting a savory, tangy flavor common in Tex-Mex dishes. Combining these ingredients creates a rich, creamy salad with crunchy vegetables.
The key to maintaining crunch in this salad is to add the Frito corn chips right before serving; otherwise, they become soggy and lose their texture. The salad can be served as a side dish, suitable for barbecues, potlucks, or casual gatherings.
Ingredients
- 1/2 c mayonnaise
- 1/3 c sour cream
- 1/2 tbsp taco seasoning
- 2 cans corn kernel drained, yellow
- 1/2 red bell pepper sliced and chopped
- 1/2 green bell pepper sliced and chopped
- 1 c Colby jack cheese shredded
- 5 oz corn chips regular or chili cheese, brand Frito
Instructions
- In a large bowl mix together the mayo, sour cream and taco seasoning.
- Add the corn, peppers and cheese. Mix until evenly covered in the dressing.
- Wait to add the Fritos on top until right before serving, otherwise they will get soggy.
