Ingredients:

1 tablespoon butter

2 cups corn kernels (from 2 ears corn)

salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon butter

1/2 cup yellow onion (chopped)

1/4 cup red bell pepper (chopped)

1/4 cup chopped green onions (green and white parts)

1 jalapeno (chopped)

2 teaspoons garlic (chopped)

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1 handful monterey jack (grated)

1/4 teaspoon cayenne

1 handful sharp cheddar (grated)

Putting The Dip Together:

1. Melt the butter in a pan.

2. Add the corn, season with salt and pepper and saute until the corn starts to turn golden brown, about

5 minutes. Set aside.

3. Melt the butter in a pan.

4. Add the onion, and pepper and saute until the onions are soft, about 2 minutes.

5. Add the green onions, jalapeno and garlic and saute until softened, about 2 minutes.

6. Mix the corn, onions, peppers, mayonnaise, monterey jack and cayenne in a bowl.

7. Pour the mixture into an 8x8 inch baking pan and top with the cheddar cheese.

8. Bake in a preheated 350F oven until bubbling and golden brown on top, about 10-20 minutes.

So I completely forgot to take pictures before we devoured this dip. You know how it is...you are having company and the kitchen suddenly becomes chaos as you get down to the last 20 minutes before people show up! In the picture below I had actually doubled the recipe because I had a lot of corn and company but I still kept it in an 8x8 dish.

YUM!
