Frito Corn Salad - packed full of great flavor! We could not stop eating it! Corn, bell peppers, onion, cheese tossed in mayonnaise, lime juice, vinegar and Chili Cheese Fritos. Great as a side dish or an appetizer. Can make ahead and refrigerate until ready to serve. Everyone LOVES this easy side dish. I never have any leftovers!
In a large mixing bowl, combine all corn, peppers, onion, cheese, mayonnaise, lime juice and vinegar. Stir well.
Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Stir in crushed Fritos right before serving.
Notes:
What can I add to corn salad?
black beans
green onions
jalapeños
pinto beans
tomatoes
Rotel diced tomatoes and green chiles
You can use canned corn, thawed frozen corn, or fresh corn.
Feel free to substitute Miracle Whip for mayonnaise.
You can use any kind of Fritos. Add some taco seasoning or chili powder to the dressing if using plain Fritos.
Add a little bit of cayenne pepper for an extra kick.
I use cheddar cheese in this dish. You can use any cheese that you enjoy. Colby Jack cheese, pepper jack cheese, or a Mexican cheese blend are all delicious.
Can I make Fritos Corn Salad in advance? Yes. Assemble the salad and refrigerate. Do not all the crushed chips until right before serving. Otherwise, you will have soggy Fritos.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
