Ingredients
  

  • 2 (15 oz.) cans whole corn kernels, rinsed and drained
  • 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated
  • 1 (10.25 oz.) bag Fritos or corn chips, plus more for garnish
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced and seeds removed
  • 1/2 cup red onion, diced
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, lime juice, and taco seasoning until smooth. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, toss together corn, cheddar cheese, diced green pepper, and red onion until evenly mixed.
  • Pour the dressing over the corn mixture and gently stir until everything is well coated.
  • Just before serving, fold in the Fritos and toss to combine. Reserve some for garnish, if desired.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve immediately for best texture.

Notes

Fold in the Fritos just before serving to keep them crispy. Can be made ahead and chilled, adding chips last minute.
