What are your favorite holiday recipes? Here is an easy side dish recipe for Creamy Corn Casserole to make this Thanksgiving.
Before I started going with Brian to Thanksgiving at my in-laws, I have never really thought about how different families have special dishes that they always serve at their Thanksgiving dinner. Growing up, my family had its own traditions and my mom made the dishes we loved including some of the ones that she grew up having. One of the things that my mother-in-law always makes is corn casserole or corn pudding. I had never even heard of a corn casserole before that first Thanksgiving with my in-laws and am so happy that they introduced me to this delicious Thanksgiving side dish.
This is week 4 of the Holiday Progressive Dinner and this week’s wonderful sponsor is Rachael Ray Oven-to-Table Stoneware from PotsandPans.com. My contribution to the menu is Creamy Corn Casserole inspired by Thanksgiving with my in-laws but before I get to the recipe, I want to tell you about this week’s giveaway!
One person will win a set of Rachael Ray Oven-to-Table Stoneware that includes 2 oval bakers and a 3.5 quart covered casserole! I got to try out the 3.5 quart covered casserole and I love everything about it! I like the bright cheerful color, the large size, the comfortable handles, the cover and the fact that I can bake in and serve from the same dish. It feels heavy duty and durable.
The recipe I made doesn’t need to be covered while cooking but having the lid available is a bonus when cooking things like turkey or pot roast. The cover is also helpful for those times when you want to bring a dish to a party. You can prepare it at home, put the lid on to transport it and serve it right out of the same pan. It is safe to use in the microwave, dishwasher and freezer. It can be used in the oven up to 500 degrees! The dish is glazed and non-porous. Stoneware helps to cook food evenly. Want to try out some of the Rachael Ray Stoneware for yourself? Enter the giveaway below!
To make the creamy corn casserole, beat softened cream cheese in a large mixing bowl. Beat in eggs, onion powder, black pepper, salt and sugar. Blend in cornbread mix, cheddar cheese, butter and milk. Stir in cream-style corn and sweet corn.
Pour into the greased casserole dish. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes or until set.
Move the Rachael Ray Stoneware dish from the oven to the table and enjoy the Creamy Corn Casserole! It might even become one of your favorite holiday recipes.

November 27, 2013 at 9:35 amHi Jen,
I have never tried making it ahead of time but from what I’ve read, preparing it ahead of time might cause it to not rise as well. I think you would be better off baking it ahead of time and then heating it before serving. I’m not sure if you can tell in the picture but it has a little bit of a crust on the top and reheating in the oven might help make the top crispy again. I’ve reheated leftovers in the microwave and they were delicious so that would work too. Thanks for stopping by and Happy Thanksgiving!

November 25, 2013 at 11:11 pmWhat size casserole dish do you bake this in?
Tonia says
November 26, 2013 at 12:01 amThe Rachael Ray dish I used is a 3.5 quart size that measures 11 x 7 x 2 1/2. If you don’t have the same dish, you can use a 9×13. Happy Thanksgiving! ~Tonia

November 23, 2013 at 9:35 pmQuestion for Tonia (the gunny sack lady): I am going to make this for thanksgiving. I was wondering if this cheesy corn casserole will do well if I make it the day before and bake it on the next day.
Tonia says
November 24, 2013 at 10:26 amSorry, I’m not sure. I’ve only mixed it up and then baked it right away.
