- butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Optional:
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika or smoked paprika for added flavor
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan for extra cheesy topping
Each ingredient is chosen to create a balance of sweetness, creaminess, and cheese flavor. Corn provides natural sweetness, eggs and cream bind the casserole, butter adds richness, and the combination of mozzarella and cheddar gives gooey, melty cheese perfection.
