Corn With Bacon Casserole

Submitted by DailyInspiration

"This sounds like a perfect BBQ or Potluck dish -- this way the calories and fat associated with this recipe are distributed over a larger number of people. Actually this just means that, hopefully, I won't be able to eat more than one serving of this casserole. Love the addition of the cream cheese and bacon with the corn -- most of all, the crushed potato chip topping. Where possible, I substituted the lighter version of ingredients. Found this in Taste of the South magazine."

I had to sub the crisps for smashed up crackers, as none of the crisps in the house were of a suitable flavour....<br/>DH and I loved this.....kids not so sure, but I didn't care, as it meant more for me.....I could just eat a dish of this and nothing else ( in fact I almost did!!).....deeeelicious!<br/>Made for PRMR.

After omitting the salt, and using sour cream and onion potato chips. used less than 3/4 cup, and used these since sour cream and onions were in the recipe. Went well with some baked potatoes. Kids gobbled down. Made for PRMR.
