Labor Day!!
Hi everybody! Another holiday is fast approaching... Labor Day! It's
time for grand parades, big fun, and time to spare with family and
friends. Celebrate the historic holiday that commemorates the huge
contributions the workers have made to the strength, prosperity and
well-being of our nation. Time to take a break, feel the real spirit
and travel to the eventful past of the American labor movement and pay
a tribute to the great labor force.
Enjoy this yummo Labor Day recipe we found in Food Network Magazine.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 ears corn, kernels cut off
Kosher salt
6 scallions, chopped
3 to 4 cups leftover chili
1 1/2 cups shredded pepper jack (about 6 oz)
1 18-ounce tube precooked polenta, cut into 12 rounds
Directions
(Use leftover Slow-Cooker Texas Chili.)
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Melt the butter in a skillet over
medium-high heat. Add the corn and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook until
tender, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the scallions and cook until soft, about 1
minute.
Spread the chili in an 8-inch-square baking dish. Top with half of the
cheese followed by half of the corn mixture. Lay the polenta rounds on
top, then sprinkle with the remaining corn and cheese.
Bake until the casserole is heated through and the top is golden,
about 20 minutes. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
