So, you ask, I deliver.

I had scheduled a different recipe to post today, but after all of the inquiries about this side dish that was in the photos on Monday’s chicken post, I thought I’d skip ahead and share this recipe with you.

There is a reason that all of you want this recipe. It’s just as good as it looks. Sure, it’s not an everyday indulgence, but man – when you do take that splurge, it’s totally worth it. I mean – you can’t go wrong with bacon and corn in a creamy sauce, right? I used frozen corn, but I know it would great with fresh corn. And since fresh corn is right around the corner, this will be a great recipe to have in your back pocket.  I’m going to remember this one for family get togethers or summer parties.  I’m sure I’ll be the favorite of the party for bringing this!!

    I eat corn almost every day in the summer. Now I have another way, but I best not make this too often. It looks so rich and splurge worthy (as you say) that it might become addicting. Well, I guess some addictions are better than others!

    Uh… WOW. This looks fantastic! What a great combination of ingredients. I adore fresh corn, and this would be a way to make it extra tasty 🙂

    I usually question those who comment on a recipe before they have even tried it, but what not to love here! This is a keeper, no questions asked!

    This sounds SO good! We went to dinner at a friend’s house once and had something similar. When I asked her the recipe, she said she just threw it all together, sans recipe. I’m glad you have a recipe for me to follow! 🙂
