1 (15 oz) can sweet corn, drained
1 (4 oz) can green chiles, mild or medium

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese, for topping
Instructions:
Step 1: Oven Setup
Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Step 2: Prepare Baking Sheets
Lightly grease two large baking sheets or use parchment paper.
Arrange the tortilla chips on the sheets with the scoops facing upward.
Step 3: Mix Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, egg, drained sweet corn, green chiles, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Mix until well blended.
Step 4: Spoon Filling
Carefully fill each tortilla chip with approximately 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture.
Step 5: Add Parmesan
Sprinkle the tops of the filled chips with the grated Parmesan cheese.
Step 6: Bake
Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Step 7: Serve Warm
Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Enjoy your Iowa Party Bites!
Notes:
Chip Selection: Tostitos Scoops are ideal for holding the filling, but you can use other sturdy tortilla chips if needed. Just make sure they are sturdy enough to hold the mixture.
Cheese Variations: Feel free to experiment with different cheese blends. Cheddar or pepper jack can add a nice twist to the flavor profile.
