I've grown up eating the Chicago and LA versions and of course the one served up in areas of Mexico. Now Florida doesn't have anything like this, but I realized that I had ears of corn in the fridge. Here's my version (since I didn't have the typical ingredients):

Corn on the cob
Greek style yogurt (Cabots of Vermont)
sprinkle each of Kosher salt, ground cayenne pepper, ground chile Ancho pepper

I know, no cheese. I just ran out of parmesan. But I'll tell you, I could have sworn that I had squeezed lime juice on my concoction due to the awesome tanginess of the yogurt. The blend of flavors with the sweet corn is eyes rolling back in my head GOOD!

I remember my sister had the habit of putting mayo in her rice. Others will use sour cream for this effect. I love the healthy substitute of yogurt and I don't mean lowfat or reduced. Hope this helps the health conscious ones out there that cringe at the thought of mayo on corn...

Buen provecho
