Mexican Street Corn on the Cob
This is a great side dish for Cinco de Mayo, 4th of July or any summer fun activity. It is easy to make and the kids can even help made the spread (be careful with young kids around boiling water). I love how it tastes great served hot or even cooled off a little bit and when I make it everyone raves about the dish. If you are going to a large gathering consider doubling or tripling the recipe. It’ll be gone before you can blink. My kids always want me to make a second serving for them to have at home. The recipe is very adaptable to the ingredients you have in your kitchen so feel free to work with what you have at home.

- 6 thick wooden sticks (soak 5-10 minutes in water).
- 2 cups finely grated Cotija cheese.
- 1 cup of Miracle Whip or Mayonnaise.
- 3 tablespoon of your favorite hot sauce (my kids like Sriracha).

The Mexican Street Corn on the Cob is best served hot. Corn is freshest the day it is bought. It is best if you buy the corn the same day and not a few days ahead. This recipe is adapted from Chef Israel Reyes at Diamanete Cabo San Lucas and the Mexican Street corn on the Cob photo is from Chef Israel Reyes as well.

That looks so good! We usually just have corn on the cob with butter and salt. I would have never thought to put a sauce over it. I might have to try this recipe at our next cookout.
