Ingredients

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (2%)
  • ¾ cup olive-oil mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons cumin
  • 3 cans (11 oz each) Mexican-style corn, drained
  • 16 oz reduced-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 4 large green onions, sliced
  • 1 jalapeño, chopped (seeded for less heat)
  • Hot sauce (optional, to taste)
  • Fritos Scoops or tortilla chips (for serving)

Instructions

 Mix the Base

  • In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and olive-oil mayonnaise.
  • Add chili powder, garlic powder, and cumin, stirring until evenly mixed.

2. Add Ingredients

  • Stir in the drained corn, shredded cheddar cheese, sliced green onions, and chopped jalapeño.
  • Mix until all ingredients are well-coated with the creamy base.

3. Chill the Dip

  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, allowing the flavors to meld. For the best taste, chill overnight.

4. Serve

  • Drizzle with hot sauce for an extra kick, if desired.
  • Serve cold with Fritos Scoops, tortilla chips, or veggie sticks.

Notes

  • Make sure to drain the corn thoroughly to avoid excess moisture in the dip.
  • Adjust the spice level to your preference by adding more or less chili powder or jalapeño.
  • For a richer dip, you can substitute Greek yogurt with sour cream.
