Southwest Corn & Green Chili Dip

BakinBaby's Note:

Canned corn,green chilies,jalapenos,green onions, mayo and sour cream. So.... easy. I found this is the Almost Homemade Gooseberry Cookbook, submitted by C.Snodgrass in Rolla, Mo. So easy, and so good. I have made a few Bakinbaby adjustments.

• Total Time: 15 mins
• Prep Time: 15 mins
• Cook Time: 0 mins

Ingredients:

Yield: 3 cups

• 2 (11 ounce) cans corn mixed with chopped peppers (drained)
• 7 ounces green chilies (diced)
• 6 ounces jalapenos (chopped or drained-reserve juice)
• 1/2 cup green onion
• 1/4 cup red bell pepper (chopped)
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
• 1 garlic clove (minced)
• 1 cup monterey jack cheese (shredded)
• 1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)

Directions:

1. Combine ingredients, do a taste test, if it needs more spice, add 1 teaspoons of the jalapeno juice or if you really like it hot, add 1/4 teaspoons cayenne pepper or more jalapenos.
2. Flavor is better if allowed to set overnight or up to two days.
3. Serve with corn chips.

Mmmmm, super creamy, super tasty and soooo moreish!!!! I made half the recipe and even though it still made a big amount of dip, it was devoured quickly, cause it was so good! I left out the green chilies using only the jalapenos and even so the dip was a little bit hotter than I had thought it would be. Next time I will further reduce the amount of jalapenos used. That said the heat was a great contrast to the sweetness of the corn and bell pepper (I used a yellow one). An absolutely yummy taste combination! I will most definitely make this dip over and over again as it is a real winner and crowd pleaser! THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this wonderful recipe with us, BakingBaby!

I so enjoyed this dip! I used corn fresh from the garden, just cut off the cob, not cooked. I left out the jalapenos and halved the recipe. It was so good! Thanks! Made for Newest Zaar Tag.
