Quick and easy 1-bowl Mexican Street Corn Salad, with the use of frozen fire-roasted corn. Yes, you can get cobs of corn, semi-cook them, then grill them for an authentic dish, but the frozen fire-roasted corn is nearly identical in taste and such a time saver!
Mexican Street Corn, (Elote) is corn on the cob, grilled and smothered in a mayo cotija sauce plus hints of chili powder. I’ve taken inspiration from this delicious simple street dish to make a vegan Mexican Street Corn Salad. The basics are the same, veganized with vegan mayo and vegan parmesan, but I’ve taken a major shortcut by using frozen fire-roasted corn, found right in the freezer section of major grocery stores. By adding just a few fresh vegetables, this corn salad makes a delicious side dish, with a creamy, zesty dressing that you’ll want to gobble up!
Perfect for grill season, if you want to grill corn on the cob for this, use about 4 cobs in place of the frozen corn. Otherwise, prep this in 15 minutes and have it in the fridge ready to pull out once the main dishes are grilled. Makes a fantastic summer party side, potluck, Cinco de Mayo dish, or an alternative to potato or macaroni salad.
Using a bag of frozen fire-roasted corn makes this recipe quick and easy. Add a few additional veggies, then the mayo, lime juice and seasoning, and enjoy!
