It's very similar except we add sliced green olives and bake it in my Mom's old casserole dish (which, of course, Leslie couldn't do unless we had the same Mother and than we'd be squabbling over that casserole dish - you get the idea ;-) <br /><br />The addition of the sour cream sounds heavenly but hubby is not crazy about sour cream. How weird is that???<br /><br />Actually hubby has taken over the chore of making the corn for years and years. <br /><br />This year we're going out to eat (if we're not snowed in.)Adriennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01562944653624224107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925673616741434546.post-83914142648092535422010-11-23T11:17:50.149-08:002010-11-23T11:17:50.149-08:00You know Susan - experimentation is all fine and g...You know Susan - experimentation is all fine and good - but when you get something everyone likes - they learn to look forward to it and expect it.

It is one of the reasons Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I might throw in a new dish but never at the expense of a traditional one. No way...

Pour into 13X9 pan. Bake 1/2 hour at 350. Take it out, spread 16 oz sour cream over the top of that, then sprinkle 8 oz. sharp cheddar over that, pop back in the oven for 15 minutes. Done!<br />Every year.<br />Only on Thanksgiving, though.<br />There. Now you have my secret family recipe!<br />Happy thanksgiving to you and your family!<br />i am blessed to know YOU!<br />Hugs,<br />~me<br />P.S. Your amberglass is yummo.Leslie {Goodbye, house.
