Bowl of corn salad with avocadosIt's the weekend, baby!  We're ready for more football, Saturday morning chores, evening dinner with friends, and church on Sunday.  Last weekend, I had a few girlfriends over for dinner (8 to be exact) and this Mexican Corn Salad was one of the dishes on the menu.  I promised them the recipe, so here it is!

I've made this Mexican Corn Salad quite a few times for company because it's such an easy Mexican side dish.  We often serve tacos when we have guests because it's a convenient meal that everyone loves.  Typically, I'll make my Easy Slow Cooker Chicken Tacos or our Ground Beef Tacos that feed a crowd.  For sides, I serve my Easy Mexican Rice, sometimes a layered dip with tortilla chips, and this Mexican Corn Salad.

The flavors remind me of our Mexican Street Corn off the cob, but I do not take the time to grill the corn in this recipe.  In fact, I use canned corn to make it quick!  All of the ingredients are mixed together in a large bowl then refrigerated for about an hour to allow those flavors to blend.

Serve this Mexican side dish cold from the fridge.  It can sit at room temperature for a couple of hours, too, but store it back in the fridge overnight for leftovers the next day.  This Mexican Corn Salad will last about 3 days in the fridge.
