Everything You Love About Elote… Served in a Cup!

If you’ve ever eaten regular old Elote Street Corn on a stick, you’ve probably thought to yourself… dang, I wish I could serve this as a side at my cookouts!

Well, we’re way ahead of you. Today, we’re bringing all the zesty, creamy, crunchy goodness of Elote Street Corn and spinning it into a spicy side dish you can serve (or eat) straight out of a bowl! That’s right. No more fussing with messy, hard-to-eat handhelds. This recipe makes it possible to serve elote alongside your potato salad, pasta salad, shoot… SALAD salad.

And just for good measure, we’re adding a generous sprinkle of Flamin’ Hot Cheeto dust over the top because we, like you, are grillers of culture.

Enjoy.
