Swaps, storing and making ahead
Good to know
Swaps
- No chili cheese corn chips? Use plain Fritos or another corn chip and add a pinch of chili powder.
- No Mexican cheese blend? Shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack works in its place.
Making it ahead
Mix the corn, cheese, red pepper, mayonnaise, salt and pepper up to a day ahead and chill; stir in the corn chips just before serving.
