Creamed corn made from scratch is so much better than anything you'll find in a can. This quick and easy creamed corn recipe pairs frozen corn kernels with a decadently creamy sauce. For a cheesier taste, stir in more Parmesan cheese or sprinkle it on top of each serving. My husband is not a fan of corn or creamed dishes, but he thinks this is great. It's especially delicious side with chicken or pork, at barbecues, or served at your Thanksgiving table. Be ready to share the recipe!
