Elote salad is a fun take on traditional Mexican elotes. This salad originally includes both sour cream and mayonnaise, but this recipe substitutes plain Greek yogurt for sour cream to increase protein and healthy fats content.
1. Heat olive oil in a stove pan on medium high heat and add the corn. Cook the corn until it is slightly charred, about 7-10 minutes. Move the cooked corn to a large bowl and set aside.
2. Add the pepper, jalapeno, cilantro, onion, and avocado to the large bowl with the corn and mix well.
3. In a separate bowl, place all the dressing ingredients together and mix until smooth.
4. Add the dressing to the large bowl with the corn and mix well. Add half of the cotija cheese and mix well.
5. Top with the remaining cheese and cilantro. Enjoy!
