Cheesy Slow Cooker Corn

So you know by now that we embrace our slow cookers here at Who Needs A Cape? If you haven’t discovered that yet, click HERE, and check out all the slow cooker recipes that we have shared.  

Everything from entrees, to freezer meals to desserts to side dishes. The latter is the category this post fits into, side dishes.  

One of those things that we sometimes get stuck in a rut with, at least at my house that happens.  Pretty sure you’ll be adding this one into your rotation though, Cheesy Slow Cooker Corn is not only easy but delicious.

As wonderful as fresh corn is during the summer, this Cheesy Slow Cooker Corn uses frozen corn. An item that is budget-friendly that we all have easy access to at all times of the year.  

I had originally run across a recipe for slow cooker creamy corn in a magazine, it sounded good, it really did. But it didn’t quite sound like what I wanted to prepare so here is my spin.  

Cheesy Slow Cooker Corn makes a great side served alongside grilled burgers sloppy joes or even Crockpot Pulled Pork. YUM!

I’ve found it works well during the holidays too because you just dump it into your slow cooker and walk away! What’s your favorite side dish? We’d love for you to let us know. Need a tasty soup? Give our Slow Cooker Corn Chowder a try!
