The Emergency Side Dish...week 17

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! Gratefulness & Apologies

Happy pre-Thanksgiving! I have a sense that someone out there needs a really easy, mild vegetable recipe that tends to be popular with picky eaters. If that’s you, I have you covered! Of course, it involves corn (you can take the girl out of Iowa, but…)

From food processor to final product...couldn't be easier!

Savory Corn Pudding

2 full size cans whole-kernel corn, drained

5 eggs

3 tablespoons flour dissolved in 3/4 c milk

6 tablespoons butter, melted

salt, pepper

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Butter a 2-quart casserole. Place corn, eggs, flour mixture and butter into a food processor or blender and process until fairly smooth. Season with salt and pepper, if you like. Pour mixture into the buttered casserole dish and bake for about 40 minutes or until pudding is set and slightly golden. Enjoy!

Thanks, Lisa!

My neighbor friend Lisa Hillman dropped off a pecan pie from SusieCakes. Yum, yum, yum…Thanks, Lisa! (Psst….Lisa is a really cool person and knowledgable realtor if you are in need of one. And I would say that even if she didn’t just give me a pie.)

Apologies & Gratitude

I had another friend recently stop by and apologize for something that happened more than 15 years ago. I was so impressed that she did that. So this Thanksgiving I’m inspired by her act of bravery. I’m going to be thinking about all the things I’m grateful for but also pondering anything I might apologize for if I had the chance. Make a list and see what you come up with! I hope everyone enjoys the holiday. Until next week…
