Mexican elote is served up right in these hearty bowls with whole grains, pico de gallo, black beans, avocado and so much more!

I have been completely obsessed with these bowls.

It’s hearty, it’s filled with plenty of veggies and produce, and well, hello, we have everyone’s favorite Mexican elote here!

The corn is made irresistibly creamy with mayonnaise, cotija, cilantro, chili powder and zesty lime juice. Yes, yes and yes.

But more importantly, look at all the other fun goodies in here!

Featuring a homemade pico de gallo, romaine lettuce, avocado, more cilantro and more lime wedges, we can easily get all of our fresh produce right at Walmart for these AH-MAZING bowls.

Walmart has locally-grown produce (which varies by location) so be on the lookout for all the farm-to-shelf groceries to pick the freshest, perfectly ripe ingredients.

Because, yes, these Mexican street corn bowls is where it’s at. K, thanks.
