While the dish's appearance might leave something to be desired, cream-style corn and bacon make for a filling breakfast. Canned cream-style corn does the trick with sauteed onions and just a hint of garlic. Start by heating up a frying pan with two tablespoons of cooking oil on medium high heat. Now, add half of a medium-sized chopped yellow onion and a chopped garlic clove. Brown onion and for a minute or two, then add garlic. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper and mix well with a wooden spoon. Add sliced bacon (three to four slices cut into one inch pieces) and fry until crisp. Finally, pour in one 14.75-oz. can of cream-style corn and mix well. Let everything reach a simmer and then lower heat. Leave pan on low simmer for five minutes. Serve hot with toast or steamed rice. Wondering what else to make with cream-style corn? Food Network's Southern cooking diva Paula Deen offers this suggestion.
Love this! Dad talked about how some kid in his boyscout troop woke them up with the smell of it cooking over a campfire. Dad said it was the first time he ever tried it. Now, some 49 years later, I make it for my kids.
