HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL

We are going to my sweet little sister’s home for Thanksgiving dinner this year. I’m being my families two favorite side dishes; Mexican Corn Casserole and Green Bean Casserole. Our family truly enjoys eating, sooo this is one of our biggest Holidays.

Mexican Corn Casserole

3 Cans of Corn {drained}
3 tablespoons of butter
3 tablespoons of flour
¾ cup of milk
1 8oz package of cream cheese
3 tablespoons of chopped pickled jalapeños
1 tablespoon of juice form jalapenos

In a sauce pan, combined butter, flour, milk and cream cheese. Cook on low heat; after the cheese melts and the sauce is creamy add jalapenos, jalapeno juice, and corn. Place mixture in a casserole dish and bake at 375 for about 35 minutes.

If you can’t handle the heat, omit the jalapeños. Don’t omit the jalapeno juice because it won’t taste Mexican.

Hope you enjoy.
