What Makes Creamed Corn Great For Thanksgiving

You already know that I love to keep it easy, but I also can’t imagine our Thanksgiving table without corn.  I like to add some color through our vegetables. It’s easy to find “green” recipes, but I love that I can bring some yellow to our table with corn.

What I love most about this recipe is how you don’t have to to thaw or microwave the corn. You throw the frozen corn onto your stove top and bring it to a boil with the cream. 

At the end, you put it under the broiler, in the oven. Just a few minutes under the broiler creates a delicious browned parmesan crust on top. Then it’s creamy and rich in the center. You’ll love it!
