Corn Casserole:
This recipe is inspired by Paula Deen's rich and cheesy corn casserole recipe. I was introduced to this casserole a few summers ago at a family barbecue I hosted at my house. My cousin was so sweet and brought this casserole to the barbecue, little did we know how amazing it was. Well, before the end of the barbecue, the casserole was all gone. Everyone loved it! Of course, I asked my cousin for the recipe and finally decided to make it myself. The first time I made it for my family was on Thanksgiving. I have a large extended family, so not only did I double the recipe, I made two of them. Again, there were no leftovers. Ever since then whenever we have a family gathering, barbecue, holiday, or any reason to get together, I alway make this corn casserole. It is a dish we enjoy eating all year round, not just on the holidays. Since this is a very buttery and rich dish, you can substitute some of the ingredients and use light or fat free instead. Some also use low fat milk in place of the butter. No matter how you decide to make it, I know you will love it. Don't be surprised if it becomes a staple in your house too. Now, let's cook!
