This corn recipe! It’s creamy, it’s cheesy, it’s so simple, and, it’s divine. With fresh corn available at the Farmer’s Market and frozen corn an easy alternative, this recipe can be made either way. I don’t know why but I have never been able to eat it. I guess I have been spoiled with fresh vegetables for so long that I just can’t tolerate foods that don’t have that fresh-picked taste. Frozen corn, on the other hand, I really like it. I’d even go so far as to say I love it. Having a garden growing up then having one as an adult, made me appreciate the difference n a lot of vegetables. Due to my back injuries and issues, gardening is not something I can do any longer. So I depend on brands like Fresh From Florida as well as our local Farmers Market. But some vegetables that are frozen taste amazingly fresh. Like corn.
So, it’s okay to use frozen corn for my Homemade Creamed Corn Recipe if you don’t have fresh corn on the cob. I give you 100% permission.
Now, I only make half of the recipe if I’m making it for myself because I live alone. I use two bags of corn if I’m making it for my family. I’ll post both recipes.

Experiment with your topper. I change mine up depending on who I invite over. Sometimes I add a few diced red bell peppers, other times I add in sliced jalapeno pepper. I top off with crumbled bacon at times. Als finely diced purple onions or green onions. There are so many different ways you can make this not only taste and look delicious, it is delicious.
