Crock Pot (Slow Cooked) Creamed Mexican Street Corn (Elote)
Crock Pot Creamed Mexican Street Corn
What you need::
1 (16oz) bag of frozen sweet corn - can be yellow or white up to you
1 (16oz) bag of frozen fire roasted corn
1 (10oz) can of rotel - I used original - feel free to use spicy if that’s what you want! do NOT drain - you need the liquids.
1 (8oz) block of cream cheese - room temp if able but if not no worries :)
1 cup of plain greek yogurt
1 red onion - diced
1 (10 oz) block Cotija cheese - split in half (half goes in recipe / half for garnish) - shredded
1.5 tablespoons paprika
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon salt
optional - fresh lime
What to do:
Put everything in crockpot (besides the lime & half of the Cotija cheese) and give it a good stir! No worries if your cream cheese is clumped - it will melt :)
Put the lid on and slow cook on low for 2.5 hours - you can stir every once in a while (if you’re able) to make sure the cream cheese / cotija cheese are melting evenly
after 2.5 hours in the slow cooker - do a taste test and make sure the corn is no longer super crunchy. The creamed Mexican corn should be bubbly & everything should be well incorparted & delish!
serve as soon as you can & top with more shredded cotija cheese & a squeeze of a lime!
