How to Make Summer Corn Dip

  1. OPTIONAL: Sauté the corn, bell peppers, and onion with olive oil, salt, and pepper. I sautéed each veggie individually for 3-5 minutes over medium-high heat. Allow to cool.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add the cream cheese, yogurt, lime zest, lime juice, cumin, salt, and pepper. Then, use an electric mixer to beat until smooth.
  3. Next, add the corn, bell peppers, onion, scallions, cilantro, and shredded cheese. Stir until well-coated. Store in the fridge until ready to serve.

Storing Corn Dip

This corn dip can be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days.

Can I use frozen or canned corn?

Yes- frozen, canned, and fresh corn will all work well in this recipe! When using canned corn, be sure to drain and rinse well. For frozen, sauté or allow to thaw and pat dry before using. Fresh corn should be cooked and carefully removed from the cobb before using in this recipe; however, sweet corn can also be eaten raw.

You bet! This dip is perfect to make the night before and serve at your next BBQ or game-day celebration!
