What Kind Of Corn To Use?
For ease and convenience, I like to use either canned corn or frozen. Both yellow corn and white corn are good. If you want to use fresh corn, that is great too.

Recipe Tips
- This salad should be made at least 1 hour ahead of time. It can be made as much as 8 hours ahead of time. Mix the Fritos in just before serving.
- For extra flavor, try using Chili Cheese or Barbecue flavored Fritos.
- Leftovers will keep for about 3 days, but the Fritos will get soggy. Some people like the way it tastes with soggy Fritos and others hate it.
