Wow this corn is crazy good! This was our first experience with cotija cheese and we really liked it. The sour cream/mayo mix melted right into the hot corn and was a great background for the cheese. We used ground chipotle pepper for chili powder and heat all in one. Fantastic - thanks for sharing the recipe!

I'm just me, mother, grandmother...friend to many and a Louisianian. My Cajun and French Quarter Italian descent afforded me exposure to some of the best of foods. My passions are my family, decorating, cooking and gardening. Those very passions push me into constant awareness with always looking for something new to delight the senses, thus my favorite idiom...Inspire me, puuuullllllleeeeeeease! ...and I mean it, too. God Bless America!
