Corn Dip

Ingredients

  • 4 oz . sour cream
  • 1 Cup shredded sharp cheddar
  • 1 Cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
  • 1/4 Cup mayo
  • 1/2 t . sugar
  • 1 Can kernel corn well drained
  • 1 Can Ro-Tel Tomatoes very well drained
  • 2-4 Green onion tops chopped
  • 1 t . Tony's Creole seasoning

Instructions

  • Mix all ingredients together and refrigerate for a couple hours. Dip will "set" while in the refrigerator.

 

This recipe is good with Fritos or Doritos “scoops”.  It came to me from the wives of the two fishermen who stayed at Camp Dularge recently.  They served it, and I thought it was a great new dip idea.  It’s easy, and it can very easily be doubled.  Furthermore, if you would like more sugar, and no Tony’s, the choice is yours.  Start with this base, and then season it the way you like. They also add some Season All, but I prefer it without.

It was a hit at the Early Christmas party, so I will make it again some time.

This picture does not do the dish justice.  It looks much nicer after it has set up for a while.

Enjoy!

  • Coastal Restoration: Beating a Dead Horse?

    In the spring of 2010, my email box was inundated with writers looking for the softer side of the story of the Deepwater Horizon explosion and following oil spill disaster. These seekers of a different angle flocked to my bayou to interview my shrimping neighbors. As a wetland advocate, I wondered how I could use this man-made disaster as a platform to further the cause of education and awareness.

    It became clear to me early on that most of the journalists who arrived at my door really had no clue about our culture and way of life. So, if they wanted a story about how the oil spill had impacted us, then they must humor me and allow me to educate them about this vanishing ecosystem and its people.

    What these well-meaning journalists needed first was a foundational perspective from the standpoint of a population of coastal communities who were suffering yet one more blow to their way of life. As a woman who lives, works, and fishes here, I could give them that perspective, which was simply this:

    This oil spill was not an isolated disaster for the people of coastal Louisiana. It was like being kicked when we were already down. And here’s why.

    2004 was a pivotal  year for me. My youngest (of five) was turning eight, and the two oldest were out on their own.  With three children left at home and thoughts turning toward what I would do when they were all gone, my focus broadened from entirely on being a keeper at home. That is…

  1. I know right now that your dip tastes wonderful. I also know it’s like mainlining caulk into your arteries! LOL

    This reminds me of the macaroni and cheese recipe I was given a few days ago. It says to grind up ham, mix it with a bunch of grated cheddar and elbow macaroni. Put it in a casserole with half whole milk and half whipping cream and cook it at 350 until it’s done, stirring now and then.

    Holy moley. Makes me want a carrot stick! LOL

      1. Exactly so – that’s why we’ll be having your dip for New Year’s. I mean – just because I recognize it for what it is doesn’t mean I’m not going to eat it! 😉

  2. I make a corn dip too but it’s a little bit different. I don’t normally measure ingredients but mine has mayo, sour cream, jalapenos, corn, chopped onions and shredded cheese. I can’t wait to try your version.
