Notes

*Corn choice: Fresh, frozen, or canned corn will work in this dish. If using fresh, it must be removed from the cob. If using frozen, it needs to be defrosted and dried in a towel. If using canned corn, drain and rinse it, then dry it off on a towel. 
**Sour cream: This can be replaced with Greek yogurt.
 
***Cheese: Other cheeses that will work are pepper jack or gouda.
