Cheddar Corn Dip



I came up with this cheddar corn dip while chatting with mom in the kitchen today. I think my Aunt Rosie was the genesis a couple years ago when she told me about a "cheddar dip" of sorts... With cheese, corn, green chilies, olives, cumin, cilantro & sour cream - how can you go wrong? :) I'm sure you could add or subtract veggies to your liking, but it's delicious as-is and works great with tortilla chips, crackers, or spread on toast points.

Ingredients:
  • 2 large cans of corn
  • 4 cups shredded Mexican or cheddar cheese
  • 3 stalks celery, small dice
  • 1 large jar of pimentos
  • 1 small can of chopped green chilies
  • ~20 black olives, small dice
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp cracked pepper
  • fresh cilantro to taste and garnish (about 2 Tbs, chopped)
  • *1/2 cup crumbled bacon could be nice!
Preparation:

Mix it all together!
