Ingredients

Vegetables

4 cups chopped romaine lettuce
2 cups corn kernels fresh cut
1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
¼ cup chopped red onion
¼ cup chopped cilantro
1 cup crumbled cotija cheese

Dressing

½ cup sour cream
2 Tablespoons salsa
2 Tablespoons lime juice
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

Preparation

Add the romaine to a large bowl. Add the corn, tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro. Stir.
Add the crumbled cotija cheese. Stir.
In a mixing bowl, add the dressing ingredients. Whisk until smooth.
Pour the dressing on the salad. Stir until the salad is evenly coated in the dressing.

Notes

I like the extra crunchiness of not cooking the corn, but grilling or sautéing it would also be great. Using mayo instead of sour cream would make it closer to Mexican street corn.
