E-mail from my Sister -- Too Funny!

Yesterday afternoon, I received an interesting e-mail from my sister:

Julie, you really HAVE to try this on your next camping trip, it is easy and can fit into one of your camping over the fire type kettles, and I KNOW you and your kids will love it!!! One of the girls made it yesterday for a work party and it's all a matter of "DUMPING" it all in the crockpot and giving a bit of a stir and let it go! Doesn't get any easier than that!

Here is the recipe for the corn casserole:

2 eggs
1 can of corn (don't drain the water)
1 can of cream corn
1 package of Jiffy corn bread
1 stick of butter
8 oz of sour cream
2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese

Melt the butter, then dump everything but the cheese together and stir like crazy. Once it's all mixed, pour it into a casserole dish, sprinkle the cheese on top and bake for 35 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Voila!

Enjoy!!!! :)

Now, until you read my response, you may not know WHY that was so funny!


My response:

Uhm . . . . I've been making a variation on that for YEARS! LOL It's even become a staple at Thanksgiving with mom and dad! LOL and is something I make with our ham for our Christmas Day dinner! LOLOL :-)

Mine does not have the eggs in it, and I don't put cheese on top, but I'm willing to try it that way. (oh, and I drain the corn.) This is one of those that I DO make regularly in my "camping over the fire type kettles" (we prefer to call them "Dutch ovens!" LOL) and have made it for many a potluck when we go to our rallies. It fits perfectly in a 10" Dutch oven and is cooked with 11 coals on top of the oven and 5 on the bottom. When I make it for potlucks, there is NOTHING left in the Dutch oven when we're done eating! Yea, it's THAT good!

Believe it or not, but it's on the menu for Easter Sunday, as it goes absolutely fabulous with ham and double-baked potatoes.

If you make it in the oven in a casserole dish, be sure to spray the dish!

RVing Outpost Cookbook

Of course, she had to call me after reading that! When I read the initial note to Abby she just cracked up at the "camping over the fire type kettles" comment! :laugh:

What a hoot!

We'll be closed here at the RVing Outpost for Easter tomorrow, but I'm here today. I'm not sure if I mentioned it previously, but I had bought a "kit" to make fajitas when I visited the new Walmart in Medford last week. I decided, since I had the Dutch ovens and burner at the store, that I'd make fajitas! Oh, they were SO good, and the store smells really good, too! :)

Here's a couple of pics from my cell phone (I didn't think to bring my camera with me today, so the pics are a little small, but it's better than nothing!







Oh, they were SO good!

Have a great day, and a wonderful Easter Sunday!
