SPICY RICE CASSEROLE
Stirring up pork sausage, wild rice and jalapeno to taste makes this a terrific side. Or serve it with cornbread to turn it into a main dish. It's easy to make ahead and reheat for a potluck meal. -Debbie Jones, California, Maryland

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Remove the corn from the husks. In a large, deep bowl, slice off the kernels of corn with a sharp knife. Turn the knife to the dull side and scrape the cob all the way down to remove all the bits of kernel and creamy milk inside. (I do this inside the bowl because it goes everywhere if you cut it on a board.)
- Add the red bell peppers, jalapenos, heavy cream, milk, salt to taste, a generous amount of pepper and butter and mix it well. Pour into a 9 by 13-inch baking dish. Bake until thoroughly warmed through, 30 to 45 minutes.

CHEESY MEXI-RICE CASSEROLE
A great way to use leftover rice. This is delicious and has a little bit of 'kick' to it. We like it as a side dish with grilled chicken breasts. If you have any left, it freezes well, too!

SPICY CORN CASSEROLE
Nice alternative to having plain old corn out of the can. Can use frozen, defrosted corn too, of course. Nice side dish for Tex Mex dishes like tacos or fajitas.

- Cook the rice according to the package directions, but be careful not to overcook it, or it will become mushy.
