This is one of those recipes that I’ve been making for years. When I first discovered it, my 2nd child was a baby (she’s 15 now!). My husband and I thought it was amazing! I would take it as a meal to friends who had just had a baby and I would always hear the same results. Everyone seems to love it! Everyone, except maybe those who don’t like corn. It is chock full of corn, so if you’re on a low glycemic index type of diet, then you’ll want to steer clear from this recipe.
I like making this one in the slow cooker, because I can turn it on and forget it, but it’s also very possible to cook it on the stovetop and have it completed within a reasonable amount of time.
