mayonnaise

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

Greek yogurt is lower in calories and higher in protein.

cotija cheese

🥗Healthier: feta cheese

💰Cheaper: parmesan cheese

Feta is lower in fat, while parmesan is often more affordable.

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Grill the corn directly on the grill, turning occasionally until all sides are charred (about 7-10 minutes). You can also use a stovetop grill pan if needed.

In a bowl, mix mayonnaise and sour cream until well combined. Set aside.

Once the corn is grilled and slightly cooled, brush each ear with the mayonnaise and sour cream mixture, coating it generously.

Roll or sprinkle the coated corn with crumbled cotija cheese.

Sprinkle chili powder and smoked paprika over the top.

Garnish with chopped cilantro if desired and serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
