Mexican Street Corn Nachos (Edit recipe)

MEXICAN STREET CORN NACHOS!! I never need an excuse to eat Mexican Food, and even though today isn’t a real holiday, there is certainly a tradition of eating Mexican Food and drinking tequila on “Cinco De Mayo” here in the States. I can’t drink any alcohol this year, but you can still find me stuffing my face per usual! These nachos are perfectly cheesy and savory, with a hint of sweetness from the fire roasted corn. Assembling these is easy, just gather your ingredients, load on the toppings, and enjoy!!

Serves: 4-6

Ingredients

1 whole Tortilla Chips (Siete Grain-free), or regular
16 oz Corn, kernels, frozen
Monterey Jack Cheese, shredded (a few handfuls)
1/2 cup Cotija Cheese
1/4 cup Mayonnaise
1/4 cup Sour Cream, + 1-2 tbsp of water
1/4 cup Cilantro
1/4 tsp Chipotle Powder, + 1/4 tsp Coarse Salt (or 1 tsp Everything but the Elote Seasoning)

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Lay out your chips on a baking dish. Add shredded cheese to the chips and put them in oven at 350°F until the cheese is melty, but not brown.
As cheese is melting, add frozen corn kernels to a pan to heat through.
Once the corn is heated, add to a bowl with a 1/4 of Mayo and 1 tsp of Everything but the Elote Seasoning. If you are using Chipotle Powder, use 1/4 tsp of chipotle powder, and 1/4 tsp of coarse salt.
Remove Nachos from the oven, put the corn kernels on top.
Shred Cotija Cheese on top of the corn
In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup of sour cream with 1 – 2 tsp of water to make it thinner. This will help you drizzle the sour cream on the nachos. Traditionally, Mexican Cream is used and the consistency is thinner than sour cream. Mix the sour cream until it is completely smooth. Drizzle on top of Nachos
Top with cilantro!
