Quick Herbed Corn

I think canned corn is an easy pantry staple to have on hand any time, but I wanted to dress it up a bit so that it's more than, you know, just a can of corn.  I love how this turned out.  I combined a couple of recipes and made a couple of pantry-friendly changes to create:

QUICK HERBED CORN

PREP TIME:  5 minutes
COOK TIME:  3 minutes

INGREDIENTS
  • 2 cans whole kernel corn, drained
  • 2 Tbsp. butter powder (I like this brand; also available here and here.  If you prefer using butter flavor Crisco as your pantry-friendly butter substitute, omit the water and oil from this recipe.)
  • 1 Tbsp. water
  • 2 tsp. oil
  • 1 tsp. dried parsley
  • 1/2 tsp. dill
  • 1/4 c. parmesan cheese

DIRECTIONS
In a microwave-safe bowl, stir together the butter powder, water, oil, parsley, and dill.  When well-combined, stir in the drained corn.  Microwave 3 minutes or until hot.  Stir in parmesan and serve.

    1. It is--it's yummy. You can certainly just use real butter in this recipe, but the butter powder is a great thing to have on hand just in case. Thanks for stopping by!
