Hot Corn and Peppers

Hot Corn and Peppers

This is a great dish to have as a side, topping for food, or as a dip to serve with chips. This is easy to make and delicious.

This was a wonderful dish to make with the Slow Cooker Chicken Carnitas. We ate this by itself with tortilla chips and used it as a topping on tacos. We have served this with some grilled fish we had at the beach a few weeks ago also.

Start by dicing red bell pepper and jalapeños and adding it to a bowl with minced garlic, corn, cheddar cheese, and chili powder. Melt cream cheese with butter in a saucepan on the stove and pour over the corn and peppers and mix until the cream cheese and corn coats the corn and peppers. Cook in the oven on 350 degrees for 20 minutes until it begins to bubble.

Remove from the oven and enjoy with tortilla chips as a dip, on top of tacos or salads, or as a side dish with your meal. I hope that you enjoy this recipe and don't forget to follow The Cookin' Dad on Facebook and Instagram.
