Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 8 oz cans of creamed corn
1 c milk (whole if possible)
1/4 tsp onion powder
salt and pepper to taste
1 heaping Tbsp cornstarch
2 c elbow macaroni, uncooked
4 oz mild cheddar, freshly shredded
4 oz sharp cheddar, freshly shredded
12 oz mozzarella cheese, freshly shredded
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 1/2 c croutons (garlic butter work well), roughly crushed
1 Tbsp olive oil
sriracha

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and move a rack to the top. Boil water for pasta.

I added some chopped ham to this recipe and it was delicious. The ham added a nice salty flavor that balanced out the sweetness of the corn. I will definitely be making this again with ham.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a hit. The corn and macaroni cook evenly, and the cheese sauce is always smooth and creamy. I like to add a little bit of cayenne pepper for a little kick.
