FAQ
Can I make the corn salad ahead of time?
Yes, the corn salad can be made up to a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator. Just give it a quick stir before adding to the bowl.
Is there a low-calorie option for the dressing?
For a lighter version, substitute the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt or reduce the amount. You can also add extra lime juice for a tangier, less creamy dressing.
What can I use instead of cotija cheese?
If cotija isn’t available, feta is a great substitute. Parmesan or a shredded Mexican cheese blend also work well.
Perfect Pairings
This bowl is hearty on its own, but it pairs wonderfully with sides like guacamole, chips, and salsa. For drinks, a cold cerveza or sparkling water with lime complements the zesty flavors of the bowl. If you’re looking for dessert, try a refreshing fruit salad or churros to continue the Mexican-inspired theme.
