Creamed Corn Casserole

A holiday tradition in many households, the creamed corn casserole is a side dish that goes well with turkey and ham. Leftovers are appetizing on their own or they can be incorporated into a whole of morning meal dishes. Also referred to as cornbread casserole, this dish is assuredly like a pudding filled with corn, eggs, sour cream, cheddar cheese, butter and cornbread muffin mix. This is not a difficult dish to make and can be ready well in advance. Variations on the dish include adding some finely diced white onion and finely diced green chilies.

The dish needs to firm after arrival out of the hot oven, and can assuredly sit on the countertop for quite a spell if desired, and to free up much needed oven space when baking other dishes. Plainly tent the dish with foil and let it rest until ready to serve. A few sprinkles of nutmeg or cinnamon can add to the farranging presentation.
