Brenda Gantt Corn Dip Recipe

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: cottage cheese

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

sour cream

🥗Healthier: plain yogurt

💰Cheaper: mayonnaise

Plain yogurt offers a tangy flavor with fewer calories.

jalapeños

🥗Healthier: banana peppers

💰Cheaper: bell peppers

Bell peppers provide a milder flavor with a similar texture.

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Processed cheese can be cheaper while still melting well.

Drain the canned corn and chopped green chilies and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Finely chop the bell pepper and add it to the bowl.

Thinly slice the green onions and add them to the bowl.

Finely chop the jalapeño peppers (removing seeds for less heat if desired) and add them to the bowl.

Grate the sharp cheddar cheese and mix it into the dip.

Add real mayonnaise and sour cream to the mixture and stir well to combine.

Mix all ingredients thoroughly with a large spoon.

Chill the dip for 2-4 hours or overnight before serving with corn tortilla chips.
