Frito Corn Salad is something I find to be absolutely addicting. Seriously. If there is a bowl of this on the counter, I will not leave its side.

So wonderfully creamy with lots of shredded cheddar cheese and crunchy, salty Frito Corn Chips.

I used Chili Cheese-flavored Frito Chips but BBQ or Ranch flavored corn chips taste awesome as well.

If you love spicy food as much as I do, be sure to try this Jalapeno Popper Corn Frito Salad.

A combination of mayonnaise and sour cream makes it super creamy and some diced red onion gives it a little bite.

Make in Advance
