Best Thanksgiving Side Dish, Ever!

Whether roast turkey will be the star of your Thanksgiving feast or tofurkey with caramelized onions and cherry relish, outstanding side dishes are essential. They can take your holiday meal from ordinary to memorable! I post this recipe every year. It's a great side dish; one of those tried and true old-time family favorites that everyone loves. I got it from my Aunt Marie. She was a tiny lady, barely five feet tall, and a marvelous cook. I treasure the recipes she shared with me.

CORN PUDDING SOUFFLE

The Ingredients.

1 can cream style corn

1 can whole kernel corn, plus liquid

2 eggs, slightly beaten

1 stick butter, melted

salt and pepper

1 pkg. Jiffy Corn Muffin mix

The Directions. 

Combine and pour into an 8” buttered souffle pan. Sprinkle top with paprika and dried parsley flakes. Bake at 325 degrees for 1+ hour. Test center with a toothpick to make sure it's done.

By the time I remembered to take a picture, the corn souffle was almost gone. But you get the idea!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Here's hoping your Thanksgiving dinner looks a lot like this famous 1943 painting by Norman Rockwell ... with delicious food and a loving family gathered round the table.

While I was looking for Rockwell's depiction of America's favorite meal, I came across a few other Rockwell-inspired variations (don't know who/whom to credit, but whoever/whomever is responsible did a great job!): the Disney version, the Simpson version and the Redneck version. There were actually more, but these were my favorites! No matter how you choose to celebrate, hope your holiday is filled with love, laughter and fun!
