Mexican Corn Casserole is darn tasty, takes minimal ingredients to make, and did I mention totally fabulous?? Lol! You get the idea. Make this tonight and let me know how it goes.

Main Ingredients Needed

• butter
• onion
• fresh sweet corn
• diced mild green chiles
• alfredo sauce
• cumin
• smoked paprika
• salt & pepper to taste
• cotija cheese plus more for garnish
• fresh cilantro for garnish
• chili powder for garnish

Start by cutting the corn off the cob. Also, be sure to use the back of your knife to scrape out the milk.

Now you can saute some onion in some butter and get them nice and tender.

Add in some green chiles,

all that corn, and salt and pepper. Cook up for a couple of minutes then add in the remaining spices and alfredo sauce and pop into the oven.

After 20 minutes, it should be hot and bubbly! Finish off with the remaining cotija cheese, cilantro, and chili powder.

Dig in and chow down! It’s hot, cheesy, creamy, slightly spicy and sweet as can be, especially if your corn happens to be in season! Cha-ching. BONUS!

Anyways, hope you get a chance to try this  Mexican Corn Casserole recipe soon! You’re bound to love it.
