About Elote preparado
Elote Preparado, or Mexican Street Corn, is a popular snack rooted in Mexican cuisine. This flavorful dish starts with grilled or boiled corn on the cob, slathered with creamy mayo or sour cream, then topped with crumbled cheese, chili powder, and a squeeze of lime juice. Some variations include a sprinkle of cilantro or additional spices to enhance its bold, savory taste. While corn itself is a good source of fiber and essential nutrients like B vitamins and antioxidants, the richness of added ingredients like mayonnaise and cheese makes it a higher-calorie treat. Lime juice and chili powder add brightness and a kick of spice without contributing significant calories. Moderation is key to enjoying Elote Preparado as part of a balanced diet, making it a delicious indulgence with cultural significance.
