It's Football Time in Tennessee

When our son was playing football at Auburn, we met many new friends and had so much good food at tailgate parties. Ten years later, we are still enjoying a recipe from a parent of another player, Gloria's Corn Dip. As you can see in the picture, even the littles like it! This dip quickly became our son's favorite and  is a regular at events in our home. Don't wait to have a Mexican dinner party to serve it - I promise that your guests will love it... very different with an incredible amount of cumin. Do not decrease... it is perfect just as recipe is written. 
Gloria’s Corn Dip

3 cans corn, drained         1 cup sour cream                        4 TBSP. cumin (NOT a mistype!)
jalapenos to taste              2 cups cheddar cheese                 chopped green onions
1 cup mayo      
                                                                             
Combine all and serve with large Fritoes. I buy the all ingredients (especially cumin) at Sam’s (they don’t have green onions) because I never make just one recipe. When doubling, I use that very large 6-pound can of corn.

  4. Paige, Have I told you that Rusty and I are totally into your bacon grease-to-the-baggie idea? Thank you so much for that tidbit! With the tomato season at an all-time great year, we have BLT sandwiches often. By the way, have you seen The Help? The meta bacon grease can on the stove was so the way I was raised.... my mother and Rusty's mother had/have! Hopefully our heart will thank us down the road. Gotta go... have a baggie of grease in freezer to toss from last night!
