Gluten Free Living – 2020

We loved the way this Spicy Creamed Corn turned out. The nice thing about this recipe is it uses only 5 ingredients. It takes about 10 minutes to toss together. It’s really wonderful for a quick weeknight side dish. This is also a great side dish for holidays and company since it’s gluten free so almost anyone can eat it.

Spicy Creamed Corn is really a delicious way to enjoy corn. It uses cream cheese as the base. Then it includes diced green chilies, green onions and bell pepper to give it a little zip and pop in flavor. I served it to my son and his wife along with Italian Chicken so it was a very simple and easy meal to throw together.

This is a tasty corn recipe for any occasion including potlucks, backyard barbecues or regular weeknight dinners. I ate about three servings myself and loved this scrumptious corn dish. If you enjoy a little Tex Mex in your side dishes, this recipe is sure to win you over.
