I’ve been making this since 1991, I add honey and nutmeg on top before baking :)
I added a finely chopped bunch of green onions an everybody loved it!
Darn, no leftovers…
everyone loved it. “make it again, please”
This is such a satisfying easy dish! I love it. I had not made this for a while and forgot what the texture of the cooked casserole was to be. Once it cooled a bit , all that deliciousness and the soft corn tastey bites woke my tastebud memories! Yum! Paired this your crispy baked potatoe wedge recipes to go with our grilled ribeyes for Christmas dinner. Thank you and best to you and your family for the Holidays!
I’m so glad you loved it Chey, Merry Christmas to you and your family too!
Two questions: how much bacon if adding, and secondly, is there a noticeable sour cream tangy taste to the baked casserole? Thank you.
I would suggest about 3 tablespoons of crumbled bacon – you can add more but this amount will add just a little bit of flavor. I don’t notice a tangy flavor in this recipe once cooked.
This was delicious! I added a small handful of cheddar, and a bit of powdered onion and fresh ground black pepper. I’m vegetarian so I used the Vegetarian Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix instead. It took a little longer to set but maybe that was the different Jiffy mix?
