Scalloped Corn
Honestly, we have corn so much in our household that we have to mix it up periodically, so we don’t go into burnout. This scalloped corn recipe isn’t an everyday corn dish, but it does work well, for Sunday dinner, Easter, or most all other holidays. It works great to make it after Easter, so that you can get rid of any extra ham that you had for dinner.

Normally we serve just basic buttered corn as a side for dinner. This, however, is another way to make it just a tad fancier. We save this mostly for Sunday dinner, easter, and even Thanksgiving. It gives us a little break from regular corn, or corn on the cob. If you want to go the extra mile, use fresh corn on the cob when it comes in season. It’s so good!
