This 5 Minute Creamy Corn Dip is one of my favorite dips ever, mainly because it is SO EASY to throw together. You can literally throw it together and serve in 5 minutes… however, if you want to let the flavors combine (and make it taste even BETTER), cover and refrigerate at least a few hours.
My sister-in-law, Linsey, gave me this recipe. She made it a few years ago for a family gathering and everyone devoured it. She has made it for us several times since and I have been meaning to get the recipe from her but kept putting it off until now. Finally, I broke down and begged her for the recipe and she was kind enough to share.
Seriously, this is a must-try dip for the summer. It is cool, creamy, and full of flavor. It is also perfect for game day in the fall, or a side dish at a BBQ. If you want to make it a “skinny dip” (haha no pun intended), feel free to cut out the mayonnaise completely and use 2 cups of Greek yogurt (you will hardly be able to tell the difference). Thanks Linsey!
- 2 cans 15 oz. mexicorn, drained
- 2 cans 10 oz. Rotel, drained
- 1 1/2 c. Greek yogurt
- 1/2 c. Mayonnaise
- 1 1/2 c. shredded cheese any kind works great, we use cheddar
- 1 1oz. pkg. Ranch dressing mix
- 1 bunch green onions chopped
- salt & pepper to taste
- Combine all ingredients and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Could you use fresh (cooked or grilled) or frozen corn?
Yes, you would be fine to use either.
Looks awesome! !
Such a delicious dip! And quick to make:)
I would love to try this using all Greek yogurt. Do you think the non-fat kind would work okay? That’s the only kind I buy.
Thanks.
You can definitely do all Greek yogurt. I, personally, am not a fan of the non-fat Greek yogurt (too runny and lacks taste to me) but you can try it!
Can u use something different than yogurt
You can use all mayo or you can do part mayo part sour cream 🙂
What is Rotel and what can I use instead in Canada if we don’t have it
Thanks
Rotel is a brand name. It is canned, diced, tomatoes with chopped onion, green chilis, and other seasonings. It isn’t as watery as most canned tomatoes. You can use 2 10 ounce cans of seasoned diced tomatoes instead of Rotel, just make sure you drain them well. Thanks for asking!
Is there an alternative to ranch dressing mix since that has MSG?
You can use the dry ingredients in this recipe: /buttermilk-ranch-dressing-recipe.html
Hope that helps!
What is mexicorn?
It is corn with peppers in it. It is just a flavored corn but it is hard to find sometimes.
Can you make ahead…like the nigh before?
Definitely!
We call this Cowboy Caviar and it is really great with cooked chunked chicken or crispy bacon. Love this !!!
Yum, I will have to try that!
How many servings is this?
It should serve 6-8 as a side dish dip
Have you ever tried this warm?
We haven’t but I bet it would be tasty!
