I made this last summer for a cajun potluck and my friends are still raving about it. Be warned, this dish can steal the show. Do yourself a favor, and cook whole ears of corn on the grill for this recipe. The end result is amazing. (I used about 6 ears and ended up with a huge bowl. The leftovers taste even better.)

If you are looking to ask me a question? I'm not here. I won't answer.
I do not assure you that the ingredients, amounts or even the directions in any recipe under my two accounts are correct due to the bad directional pointer in the database that is causing problems with the amounts or ingredients. I will also NOT assure you they are correct when the site claims they are fixed. Use at your own risk. They will be correct on my site. End of story.
