An unusual night

Corn pudding from The Seasoned Mom website

Unusual due to the fact that tonight I cooked something from a recipe (which is an extremely rare occurrence around our house).

Granted, it wasn’t a hard or complicated recipe by any means. But, as so often happens with recipes that I see online, it looked really good, so….

I left the browser tab open to “remind” myself to do something with it. Then (after about two months) I clicked on the “easier” version, which was beginning to seem a little more likely. So now, two tabs remained open for several more weeks.

At that point I was determined to close those tabs, so I finally cut and pasted the easy recipe into my Google Doc titled, “Recipes to make (now or someday).” And after another month I bought the ingredients, which was only about three weeks ago!

And what was this recipe that captured my imagination and wouldn’t let go? Corn pudding, related to “spoonbread,” which I had looked up after seeing it mentioned in a book.

This particular recipe is a 4-ingredient, 4-minute Corn Pudding to which I added broccoli (everything is better with broccoli in my book). Both Ramesha and I give it a thumbs up.
