Street Corn Fans, This One’s For You!

Everything you love about Mexican street corn, but turned into a big, crunchy green salad. ♡

We’re talking crisp romaine, sweet charred corn, black beans, salty cotija, roasted pepitas, cilantro, green onions, crunchy tortilla strips all tossed together with a creamy lime-chili dressing. It’s tangy, it’s smoky, it’s perfectly fresh and filling. And if you love elote as much as I do, it’s downright irresistible!

It’s the kind of salad that feels both fresh and satisfying, which is always the goal around here. Serve it up with grilled chicken, shrimp, steak, tacos, enchiladas, burgers, or whatever you’ve got going on. Or just grab a fork and dive in and call it lunch! Highly recommend making this salad while fresh corn is in season, but frozen or canned corn totally works too so that we can keep this recipe in the rotation year-round.
