No Ordinary Cream Corn

About a month ago, I was frustrated and couldn't think of what to make for dinner. So Ryan volunteered to come up with something that night. I could hear him scavenging through our fridge and pantry, thinking to myself good luck. 

Then he walked out of the kitchen with this:

This is my Instagram photo of dinner that night. Look how delicious! I really do have the most amazing man. He stuffed a chicken breast with fresh jalapenos and grated cheese and served it over a bed of cream corn. I pretty much inhaled my plate and I never eat that fast.

Since then, we have both been obsessed with this cream corn recipe. We've probably made it at least five times in the last few weeks. We've made it for friends and family and there never seems to be enough on the table.

Rich, sweet, and salty - this cream corn is our new go-to side dish.
