Perfect Presentation Platters

Large Serving Bowls: If you are making a larger batch, there are so many choices for any budget! I love this beautiful stoneware bowl or you also can’t go wrong with this option from JC Penney for larger batches. For a higher-end choice, I love this white floral bowl by MacKenzie-Childs, as well this everyday bowl from her collection, which also comes in blue.

Individual Bowls: I used this MacKenzie-Childs checkered bowl, which also comes in blue and pink. If you’d prefer to serve this Mexican Street Corn Dip in individual or smaller bowls, Walmart has these beautiful gray stoneware bowls with silver rims that are so elegant! I also love this black-and-white coordinating set or this colorful terracotta Spanish style.

Kitchen Links: I get asked all the time about the products in the background of my kitchen. Much of it is from MacKenzie-Childs, which I have slowly grown a collection of over the years! My favorites are this checkered chopping board, my black and white checkered teapot, and the gray and white checkered utensil holder. I also have this enamel canister that you can find in small, medium, or large.

Can I Prep This in Advance?

Yes! You can keep in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 days ahead of time and can either serve cold or heated up in the microwave!

Storing Leftover Mexican Steet Corn Dip

Cover the serving bowl tightly with Saran Wrap or foil and refrigerate. (You can also transfer to a Tupperware container! This should stay fresh for 2-3 days and makes for excellent leftovers!

Enjoy!
