Notes
Sprinkle on Cotija or Queso Fresco cheese.
A bright garnish for this dip is pico de Gallo and green chiles.
We recommend using canned corn and, specifically (if you like heat) the roasted corn that includes red peppers. It already has some good flavor built right in.
For heat – Try spicy/hot sausage or chorizo sausage, or serve with hot sauce.
