It was a pleasure working with Iowa Corn. All opinions expressed in this post are my own.

Friends, today I am sharing my new favorite corn recipe from my #IACornQuest trip. In Iowa we visited Whisk Away, the most adorable cafe and bakery turned into cooking class mecca. While sharing this amazing corn recipe with you, I also wanted to give you a brief glimpse into my trip. Here is how it started out.

Here is what I took away from those amazing few days. PASSION. #IACornQuest lit a passion in me to help sustain our earth and our culture of farming and to have a greater sense beyond myself. I came out more proud of the American heritage of farming, where it has gotten us, and where it is taking us. I learned that corn is more than just a side dish at my dinner table. Corn feeds our livestock, cars, and homes – and it will continue to grow in its value as a tangible source of energy.

I thought #IACornQuest would consist of harvesting and eating a ton of corn. I wasn’t expecting much except maybe a tractor ride and some great recipes. But I knew I’d be attending with some of my blogging friends, so I knew going in it would be a great group. I thought, “How fun to go to Iowa – a great place to visit, eat corn (my family’s favorite vegetable) and get some great sunset photos”. I did think we’d hear some GMO talk but wasn’t really sure how it would fit in since I knew the sweet corn we eat doesn’t have GMO.

Reflecting back on #IACornQuest, my projection was right. I got a tractor ride, ate some great food made from corn (my favorite being Apple Tamales), and met up with some great friends and fellow bloggers. I learned so much more than I ever thought I would.

Now I realize how corn is so completely integrated into our lives, from food to fuel and everything in between. It isn’t just a dish on our table, it has become a staple in our society. Iowa Corn were amazing hosts, sharing many views including representation from the National Lung Association, a dietitian, and even hearing insights to the car industry. Because of this, I came away with so much appreciation for our farming community and corn.

I cannot wait to not only share another amazing recipe coming on the blog soon in addition to some interesting tidbits I really learned about corn and GMO’s.

Until then enjoy this amazing Scalloped Corn recipe from sweet Laura Prichard’s Grandma Jane. While I haven’t met Grandma Jane, I love her based solely on this recipe alone. And if Laura is a tenth like her, well then she is a gem. This Scalloped Corn casserole is so becoming a Thanksgiving staple. Enjoy! XOXO San

Thanks, Iowa Corn for an amazing and unforgettable experience.

How do you make Scalloped Corn?

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Spray a 2-quart casserole dish with cooking oil.
  • Mix all of the ingredients except the butter together until combined, pour into prepared casserole dish and then drop small bits of butter over the mixture. I cut it into about 10 small chunks and dropped them around the dish.
  • Place in oven and bake 80-90 minutes uncovered – check at 60 minutes to see how it is doing. If it is jiggly in the center it is not cooked. Remove from oven once the center is set, it will still look wet but will not be very jiggly.
  • If the top starts to become too browned, lightly cover with a piece of tin foil.
  • Serve hot, and store in a tight container in the fridge. Enjoy!

  1. I loved this post. My husbands families are from Missouri and Iowa. He got to spend each summer on the 600 acres farm in Iowa where they raised everything imaginable, when he was elementary school age. Thank you for the recipe also. I am a huge corn lover.
