I always save some of summer’s sweetest corn for this dish. I cut it from the cob & store it in the freezer for a taste of summer in the winter. Scalloped Sweet Corn is a great side dish for Thanksgiving, Christmas or when you’re craving some kind of comfort food.
I paired it with grilled steak, mashed yams, and roast asparagus for our Christmas dinner. It‘s a meal that doesn’t require a special occasion to eat but the scalloped corn will make it special anytime. With Covid restrictions we stayed home for Christmas and had a quiet dinner with just the three of us. We were able to drop by and visit my in-laws outdoors on the patio during the heat of the day. There is snow on the ground, but in New Mexico when the sun shines it feels a lot warmer than the temperature reads. We delivered a care package Christmas dinner for my in-laws of spiral sliced ham, scalloped corn, mashed yams & dessert. I wished we could’ve done the same for my parents but they live 7 hours away. I haven’t seen them since last Christmas but wIth regular phone calls and emailing lots of photos we’re staying connected.
Stay connected with your loved ones and enjoy the simple things in life like a delicious meal. I’m grateful for a little taste of summer during winter’s short days and that we’re heading into a new year. Cheers to 2021.
