About Mexican corn salad

Mexican Corn Salad is a zesty and flavorful dish rooted in Mexican cuisine, inspired by the street food favorite, elote. It features fresh, charred corn kernels mixed with ingredients like tangy lime juice, creamy mayonnaise or sour cream, crumbly cotija cheese, and a touch of chili powder for spice. Often garnished with cilantro, this salad offers a satisfying mix of sweet, smoky, and savory flavors. Corn provides dietary fiber and essential nutrients such as vitamin C and antioxidants, while lime juice adds a boost of vitamin C for immune health. Cotija cheese and mayo contribute richness but can add saturated fats, so portion size is key for a balanced diet. Overall, Mexican Corn Salad is a vibrant dish that combines fresh, whole ingredients for a delicious way to enjoy a taste of Mexico.
