Recipe Tips

  • If you want to make the dish a bit spicier, add more chili powder to the mayonnaise mixture. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a diced jalapeño.
  • For a smoky flavor, add some smoked paprika to the mayonnaise.
  • If you don't have cotija cheese, you can use feta, Parmesan, or even queso fresco.
  • You can also add some diced bell peppers to the mixture for some extra color and flavor.
  • If you don't have a crock pot, you can make this recipe on the stove top. Just place the corn and mayonnaise mixture in a large pot, bring to a simmer, and cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
