Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 3 (11 oz) cans MexiCorn (sweet corn & diced red and green peppers), drained
- 1 (7 oz) can chopped green chiles
- 1 (6 oz) can chopped jalapeno peppers (drained, liquid added to taste)
- 1/2 cup green onion, chopped

- Chill the Dip: Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least two hours or up to overnight. This chilling allows the flavors to marry and the dip to thicken.
