I had this casserole for the first time as an adult. I fell instantly in love. So simple. Sweet, spicy, creamy…corny.
I admit I’m corny…and if you have been around here much you’ll agree! But all kidding aside, this casserole would be a perfect addition to your Thanksgiving menu! Plus it’s so gol dern easy! It’s pretty too…it adds a bit of sunshine to the otherwise neutral Thanksgiving plate.
That’s it right there! I bet you have all of these ingredients in your house already.
You can pretty much just dump it all in a mixing bowl and mix it up. I like to whisk my eggs with the sour cream first, you don’t have to. After mixing the cans of corn, the jiffy mix, butter, and the sour cream & eggs together, fold in the cheese and finely chopped jalapeno. Pour into a buttered dish. Bake. Enjoy!
Already have a full table at Thanksgiving…can’t add another dish? Really? I don’t believe it! OK then print this one off for another time during the Holidays, because I know it’s going to be a new favorite!

This is complete comfort to me! I love the addition of the jalepeno pepper! YUMMY!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!!!
The person who introduced this wonderful dish to me, this is how she likes to make it – with the jalapeños. Yummo. This is def a great dish!
The first time I had it is was sans cheese or jalapenos, I loved it that way too. But this is definitely better!!
Have you ever tried baking it in a cast iron skillet? It’s my favorite. In my archives “Kristi’s Cornbake”, if you want to check it out.
