Notes

  1. Fresh or frozen corn kernels can be substituted for the canned corn.
  2. I recommend grating your own cheese for this recipe. The bags of pre-shredded cheese at the grocery store contain anti-caking agents and other preservatives and the cheese doesn't melt as smoothly as the freshly grated type.
  3. Feeding a crowd? You can double this recipe and bake it in a 9" x 13" dish.
