Recipe #2: Corn Casserole

Read Article →
It was my very first time making corn casserole yesterday – and, it was a delicious success! I ate a third of it last night whilst watching the latest episodes of The Vampire Diaries and Castle. Best meal ever. I’m a sucker for vampires, crime dramas and good food.

I gave my coworkers a tiny taste of my corn casserole in the morning and, they loved it! So, I’m bringing more tomorrow. Hungry stomachs must be fed and I’d really like the salivating to stop. Haha.

I will most definitely be using this recipe again (soon) – but, please indulge yourselves in corn heaven in your own casserole dish.

Ingredients
2 eggs, beaten
1 (15 ounce) can cream-style corn
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 (15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies, drained
1 (8.5 ounce) package dry corn muffin mix

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2 quart casserole dish. In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs, cream style corn, sour cream and melted butter. Stir in whole kernel corn, cheese, onion and chilies. Stir in the corn muffin mix until just moistened.

Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for 75 minutes; or until an inserted knife comes out clean and the top is golden. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Good eats!

It all started with a grilled cheese sandwich.

I ordered a grilled apple and cheese sandwich at Syrup Desserts (located in downtown LA) a couple days ago and that grilled cheese sandwich is the inspiration for this entry.

Parking was a pain and expensive (like it always is in downtown LA) – but, standing in line, waiting for a supposed grilled cheese masterpiece was well worth the drive. I devoured the little sandwich within minutes of opening the take-out box in my car.

So, in an attempt to concoct the perfect grilled cheese sandwich – I picked up a few ingredients at the supermarket yesterday. I decided to use slices of American cheese on dark rye bread for lunch. The sandwich was decent, but something was...missing. I probably should have used a different cheese, not American.

Today, I'm experimenting with cheddar cheese and blueberries on dark rye bread - sounds strange, doesn't it? Strange, but hopefully delicious.
