🌽 Your Labor Day Weekend Needs Street Corn

​

If there’s such a thing as a past life, I’m pretty sure I was a Mexican at some point in time.

​

I mean, how else do you explain my deep, undying love for all things elote?

​

Yes, I may be Mediterranean at heart, but give me fresh corn, chili-lime seasoning, and a sprinkle of Cotija, and I’m suddenly planning a fiesta in my backyard. 🎉

​

Over the years, I’ve created just about every version of Mexican street corn you can think of—on the cob, off the cob, in a salad, in a dip, even in the air fryer. #IYKYK

​

And every Labor Day weekend, these are the recipes that gets the most amount of clicks & shares.

​

Because if you’re not covered in corn and cheese by the end of the weekend… are you even celebrating?

​Mexican Street Corn​

Let’s start with the classic. This is the beloved version with mayo, cotija, chili powder, and lime—served right on the cob or off if that’s more your style. You can boil or grill the corn. It’s messy in the best way and always a hit.
