Description

This is not your run of the mill creamed corn. It is made with cream cheese, bacon, bell peppers, frozen corn and hot sauce, if desired. Serve with your favorite main dish.

Ingredients

• 1/2 lb. bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
• 1 large red bell pepper, chopped
• 1 large green bell pepper, chopped
• 4 c. frozen corn
• 8 oz. cream cheese
• freshly squeezed juice of 1 medium lime
• 2 T. hot sauce, optional
• 1/2 t. kosher salt
• 1/4 t. freshly ground black pepper

Steps

1. Wash bell peppers, discard seeds and membranes, chop.
2. Cook bacon over medium high heat, about 4-5 minutes. Remove to a paper towel lined platter to drain off grease; cut into 1/2 pieces.
3. Discard most of the bacon grease, leaving a little to cook veggies. Add bell peppers to the hot skillet; saute over medium-high heat for about 1 minute; add corn; cook 5 minutes, until corn is hot.
