What is mexicorn?

Green Giant makes a can of mexicorn called Steam Crisp Mexicorn, which includes whole-kernel corn with red and green bell peppers. You can buy it on Amazon or find it in the canned vegetable section of your local grocery store.

Supplies

We use an 8 by 8 glass baking dish. It takes about 15-20 minutes to prepare and feeds approximately 12 people. If you plan to make it for a larger gathering, double it and use a 13 by 9 pan.

How to Make Quick & Easy Mexicorn Dip

Follow these simple steps to make this delicious dip.

Step 1 | Layer 1: chop produce and add to baking dish

Start by chopping the green pepper, onion, and tomato into small chunks. Add them to an 8x8x2 glass baking dish.

Step 2 | Layer 1: drain pinto beans and mexicorn and Add

Next, drain the pinto beans and mexicorn. (Rinse and drain the pinto beans so the dip doesn’t get watery.) Add these ingredients to the green pepper, onions, and tomato.

Step 3 | Layer 1: mix or leave in layers

Mix the pinto beans, onion, green pepper, and mexicorn. Or leave in layers.

Step 4 | Layer 2: combine sour cream and ranch mix

In a separate small bowl, mix the sour cream and ranch dip seasoning.

Step 5 | Layer 2: Drop ranch mixture on top mexicorn mixture

Drop spoonfuls of the ranch mixture on top of the green peppers, onions, tomato, pinto bean, and mexicorn mixture.

Step 6 | Layer 2: spread out ranch mixture

Spread the ranch mixture over the first layer—like you are frosting a cake.

Step 7 | Layer 3: top with cheese and black olives

Top with 1/2 cup shredded cheese. We like to use freshly grated cheddar cheese. (So good!) Sprinkle with sliced black olives. We love olives, so we add an entire small can.

Step 8 | Chill and serve with chips

For the best flavor, chill in the fridge for a few hours before serving.

When you’re ready to serve, pair with tortilla chips. AND be prepared to share the recipe! Your friends and family will love it.
