CREAMED CORN – SLOW COOKER RECIPE

Slow cooker creamed corn is easy and delicious.

Creamed corn is a recipe you will make over and over again.  We love this creamed corn made in the crock pot or slow cooker.  It keeps well for several days in the refrigerator and you can reheat in the microwave or on top of the stove.  You don’t have to add the bacon but we like bacon in everything!  You can double the recipe for a group of people or to take to any gathering.  This makes a great side dish for any holiday meal.  Additional seasonings or spices could be added to your taste such as a little garlic powder or you could even sprinkle on some of your favorite cheese.  You might also like our recipe for corn salad.
