To be honest, we never made creamed corn when I was growing up. I was presented with it at my grandmothers and it always struck me as too slimy. I do love corn though, and seeing this recipe made me brave enough to try because it looked delicious.
I am SO glad I did, this dish blew me away. The jalapeno and bacon gave it a kick I really wanted, but I think it’d be just as amazing without the spicy addition of you’re not into that. I was thinking maybe a bit of diced red pepper would be a good replacement.
Sweet, spicy and a little bit cheesy it has the right combo of flavors and a great texture that is nothing like the creamed corn I remember.

Quick Tip: Canned corn is faster and will taste just as wonderful, but I used some leftover grilled corn and just cut it off the cobs – results were phenomenal.
