Mexican Street Corn

Mexican street corn (a.k.a. “Elotes”) is a bold way to grill corn! Get a good char on the kernels before slathering with a cheese-spiked sauce and lots of fresh lime. Traditional recipes use mayo, spices, and Cotija cheese. Streamline and use Cheesy Fries Seasoning as the base and swap mayo for protein-rich Greek yogurt.
