Notes
Serving Suggestion - while this creamed corn recipe would be perfect for a holiday meal with my Mayonnaise Roasted Turkey or Cranberry Glazed Ham, it would also be an easy weeknight side dish with pork chops, grilled chicken, or steaks.
Leftovers - store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
