Corn is one of my favorite veggies. I love grilled corn, creamed corn...and just plain ole corn off the cob with butter, salt and pepper.
I especially love when corn is in season. Fresh, juicy, sweet corn.
There are a lot of ways you can make corn, but when the weather starts to heat up and bbq's and get-togethers by the pool with friends and family start filling up the calendar, this has become one of my go-to recipes.

ReplyDeleteDanielle, as a fellow corn lover, let me tell you that when in season, my family will eat corn on the cob ONLY for dinner --- nothing else.....just cob after cob after cob in hot drizzling butter! That's how crazy about corn my fam is! And this casserole is begging me to make it!!!! YUM!
