The amazing combination of sweet corn with melted Cheddar cheese and smoky bacon makes this side dish a worthy candidate for your Thanksgiving table.

Why try? This creamy corn side dish pairs up beautifully with mashed potatoes, turkey, stuffing. It just fits right in. You’ll want to give it a recurring role in your Thanksgiving spread, or anytime you want to serve something special.

Foodie Byte: The bacon adds a wonderful finishing touch to this dish. Avoid the temptation to use less than the recipe calls for.
