Notes

  1. Cheese: If you don’t like the pre-shredded cheese feel free to sub it out for Monterey jack cheese or pepper jack cheese.
  2. Mexican Corn: The Mexican corn that this recipe calls for is a blend of corn and peppers in a can! Just be sure to drain before adding to the dip.
  3. Can This Recipe Be Cut in Half? If you're serving a smaller group or just watching football with your hubby, the recipe is easily cut in half and baked in an 8x8 casserole dish.
