EASY CORN CREOLE



EASY CORN CREOLE image

The original recipe for this dish came from the cookbook OLD FARMERS ALMANEC EVERYDAY COOKBOOK. I used coconut oil instead of vegetable or canola oil, and I added a bit of Cajun spice to add a bit more flavor without adding calories. You can omit the cheese all together if you want to eliminate even more calories. I chose to...

Categories     Side Casseroles

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 Tbsp coconut oil
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp cajun spice
1 c chopped yellow onions
1 large green bell pepper, chopped
2 c diced tomatoes (i used canned tomatoes drained)
1 tsp sugar
2 c corn (fresh or frozen)
2 Tbsp real bacon bits (i used hormel)
2/3 c shredded cheddar cheese (original used 1 1/2 cups)

Steps:

  • 1. This is the book where the original recipe was found. A great book USING easy to find everyday ingredients. I used fresh corn off the cobb if you use frozen the prep time will be less.
  • 2. Chop onions and bell pepper and set aside till needed.
  • 3. Remove corn from cob with a sharp knife if using fresh. Make it easier to remove by placing a soup/cereal bowl upside down in a larger bowl, then rest the cob on the smaller bowl, and cut along the sides of the corn to remove kernels.
  • 4. Add the coconut oil to a large skillet, then heat over medium high heat. Add the onions and chopped peppers and cook for 5-7 minutes till transparent.
  • 5. Then add the drained diced tomatoes and stir to blend together, add the spices, add salt if desired.
  • 6. Add the corn and continue to cook over medium high heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
  • 7. These are the main ingredients used in this recipe. Adding the 2 Tbs of REAL Bacon bits ONLY ADDED 50 CALORIES TO THE entire dish, & it packs a lot of flavor. Just 149 calories for one serving.
  • 8. When the vegetables are tender after about 5 to 7 minutes, add the real bacon bits, stir, then top mixture with shredded cheddar cheese. TURN OFF HEAT. Then cover skillet with lid to allow cheese to melt.
  • 9. Serve immediately while still hot.

CREOLE CORN CASSEROLE



Creole Corn Casserole image

I am confident you, your family and your guests will find this to be one of the best tasting and the the most easily prepared vegetable side-dishes to be found. It is an old Corn Souffle recipe that I bumped up a little by turning it into a Creole-Cajun type casserole. I started taking this to a monthly covered-dish dinner and there was never any left-overs to bring home, so I started doubling the recipe and I got the same results -- still no left-overs. And it is really better after it has been around for a couple of days. Guess I will have to start tripling the recipe, making one large casserole for the dinner and a smaller one to leave at home. I am under strict orders from the dinner group that I am to bring nothing but this dish. This suits me fine for it is so easy to prepare and I get a big kick from seeing my empty dish after the dinner.
