Description

Chili Frito Corn Salad is a crunchy and flavorful salad that combines corn, bell pepper, and cheese with the zing of Chili Fritos for an unforgettable dish.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 850 grams canned corn, very well drained
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, finely minced
  • 120 grams cheddar cheese, hand-shredded
  • 120 grams Monterey Jack cheese, hand-shredded
  • 240 millilitres mayonnaise
  • 15 millilitres ground black pepper
  • 15 grams fresh parsley, chopped
  • 255 grams Chili Fritos corn chips

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine drained corn, minced red bell pepper, cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, mayonnaise, ground black pepper, and chopped parsley. Mix thoroughly until well blended.
  2. Lightly crush the Chili Fritos using your hands, breaking them into bite-sized pieces while avoiding crumbs.
  3. Add crushed Fritos to the corn mixture just before serving to preserve their crisp texture. Gently fold together and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For best results, serve immediately after adding the Fritos to maintain their crunch.
  • This salad can be made ahead by preparing the corn mixture, but add the Fritos right before serving.
