Chula's Expert Tips
- I used reduced fat cream cheese.
- I used low fat sour cream.
- I don't like a lot of heat in my dip. Therefore, I removed all of the seeds and membranes from the jalapeño peppers. If you like more heat, adjust the amount of seeds and membranes that you remove.
- Rather than using fresh jalapeño peppers, you could use jarred jalapeño peppers. In this case, reduce the amount used to 1/2 cup.
- I used frozen corn kernels, but you could also use canned corn that is well drained.
