Ok, I can not believe that I am going to share this recipe with everyone. Everyone has that ONE recipe… you know, the ridiculously simple one that makes you the envy of all your friends. Well, this is mine. I first made this for my NYC pals soon after moving here. Since doing that there hasn’t been a single occasion where this casserole has not made an appearance. I always swore I’d never tell, but…
Oh well, here goes. First of all, I have no idea who taught this to me. I’ve just been making it as long as I can remember. My best idea is that I just threw this together by mixing old recipes from church cook books. Either way, it’s good. And since I can’t fully remember it’s origins, claim it as your own. But remember to keep the recipe a closely guarded secret.
You will need the following:
6 Slices Bacon
1 Medium Onion–chopped
22 oz. Shoepeg Corn. Drained.
1 Cup Sour Cream
Colby Jack shredded cheese
Salt & Pepper to taste
Fry the bacon in a skillet till crisp. Remove all but about a tablespoon of the grease. (Save it–you will be instructed what to do with it later). Very important not to dump out the bacon bits in the pan. Add the onion to the bacon fat and sauteè. Combine onion, corn, and sour cream. Add salt and pepper. Place in small casserole dish. (Or Pyrex works fine). Top with bacon (crumbled) and cheese. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Enjoy!
Now, people are just gonna fall through their ass and strangle themselves when tasting this. They are gonna guess all kinda ingredients. DO NOT, I repeat Do Not tell them how you made it. Just enjoy the compliments. And get ready. This dish will be more popular with your friends than you are. I have even been asked to make this in lieu of a cake for a birthday!!!
I just had a heart attack when I saw the title of this post. Cannot believe you shared your secret!
I have had the good fortune of sampling this dish (ok eating half the pan, but whatever) MANY times. Our very own Hungry Homo made it for several parties at my house and I have to tell you that you will grab the person next to you and hit them right in the mouth because it is THAT GOOD.
Jen L. I love the stew out of you. I thought that my quote from “Always Patsy Cline”–you know “fell through his butthole and strangled himself” would be the funniest turn of a phrase in this post. But you have indeed proven me wrong.
I have just gotten mental pictures of you taking one bite of Casserole of Love and turning to Kitty and punching her in her mouth. The whole time she is looking for panties in her head.
hahahahaaaaa! Are they in the box with the silverware? Probably not. Hmm.
Yay! Now I can make it for Thanksgiving!!!! Unfortunately this means I WILL end up punching the cat. But he deserves it, pretty sure he’s hidden my panties.
This was FAST, EASY, and DELICIOUS. We didn’t eat the whole pan last night, so what was left over I had with my eggs for breakfast! Is it okay to add ingredients? Because I’m from Mexico, I’m really tempted to add some jalepenos to the dish next time I make it (next week).
Thanks, Hungry Homo!
ohhhhhh my goodness. the jalapenos are such a great idea! i will probably jump off a bridge after eating that.
