About Mexican street corn salad

Mexican Street Corn Salad is a vibrant, flavorful dish inspired by the classic "elote" sold by street vendors in Mexico. It features roasted or grilled corn kernels coated in a creamy mixture of mayonnaise, sour cream, and lime juice, then spiced with chili powder and garnished with fresh cilantro, crumbled Cotija cheese, and a dash of smoky paprika. This salad captures the bold and savory essence of Mexican cuisine while offering the convenience of a shareable format. Corn provides a good source of fiber and essential vitamins, while lime juice adds a boost of vitamin C. However, the creamy base and cheese contribute saturated fats, so it’s best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Customize with extra veggies or swap lighter ingredients to make it even more health-friendly without losing its signature zesty and indulgent taste. Perfect for potlucks, barbecues, or a side dish with flair.
