Scalloped Corn Casserole

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We had seven for dinner, including us. Of course, we made way way way too much food.  Isn't that always the case on the holidays?  Here is what our spread looked like.  You can see the scalloped corn casserole at the far end.

One of the wonderful things about combining D's family with mine is learning about the dishes that are part of his family's traditions. This casserole is one that his grandmother made every year and now his mom makes it.  I don't think D would believe it was Thanksgiving without it.

If you try it, I hope you enjoy it as much as much as he does.
