  • 0.5 cup red onion finely diced
  • 1 bag Fritos corn chips 10.5 oz, coarsely crushed

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine corn, cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, green pepper, and red onion. Stir until everything is evenly coated.
  • Cover and chill the mixture in the fridge if not serving immediately.
  • Right before serving, fold in the crushed Fritos chips. Start with half the bag and adjust to your texture preference.

Notes

You can adjust crunchiness by adding more or fewer chips. For extra color, try mixing red and green bell peppers. Add jalapeños for a spicy twist.
