- 2 cups Sweet corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
- 8 ounces Vegan cream cheese
- 0.25 cup Vegan mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
- 2 Jalapeños (finely diced, seeds removed for less heat)
- 0.5 Red bell pepper (finely diced)
- 2 Green onions (thinly sliced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika

- 1 tablespoon Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt

- 2 tablespoons Cilantro (chopped, optional for garnish)
Instructions
If using frozen corn, thaw it, and if using canned corn, drain and rinse it well.
In a medium-sized skillet over medium heat, lightly sauté the corn kernels for 3–5 minutes to enhance their sweetness. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the vegan cream cheese, vegan mayonnaise, and almond milk. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Add the diced jalapeños, red bell pepper, green onions, smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, lime juice, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir to combine.
Fold in the sautéed corn kernels, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Transfer the dip to a serving dish and garnish with chopped cilantro if desired.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh veggies. Alternatively, refrigerate for 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together before serving.
