Notes
This recipe is very portable. Simply store in a covered container in the refrigerator before traveling.
Tortilla chips are the perfect dipper, but you can offer other options like celery as well.
Because this corn dip contains mayonnaise, it is better to keep it cold. Sitting on the picnic table while you eat your lunch is fine. However, it's best to keep it in the cooler while you enjoy yard games and chatting.
