I devoured those cans at Christmas - we had ours on a Ritz cracker and thought we were very posh.<br /><br />I halved this recipe and made it for dinner as I was intrigued by the flavour combination. I'd never had thought to put corn in such a dish, but it works. I didn't have creamed corn or condensed tomato soup, but I can do a fair substitute for both. I used pancetta as I had that at home and whole wheat spaghetti. It was so easy to make and cooked up really well. We had ours with a salad on the side and the very naughty garlic bread - a really tasty mid week meal.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04088355577823930786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-10578697323959724502017-12-05T06:05:18.933+00:002017-12-05T06:05:18.933+00:00You are welcome Judi!

I recognize the cover of that cook book from when I was a kid and I'm pretty sure my great grandma had one. I don't know what happened to it after she passed but your post inspired me to head over to Amazon and buy one, so I've got one on the way!! Just looking at the cover reminds me of being a kid in 1977 and having dinner at my grandma's house or at one of my brother's Boy Scouts pot luck dinners. :-)Jeannine520https://www.blogger.com/profile/02528971053015531108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-89573188954141283712017-11-29T16:15:18.768+00:002017-11-29T16:15:18.768+00:00It works really well Monique.
