"Pudin de Elote. This is based on a recipe from Sunset's Mexican Cook Book. I love it, yet look forward to trying the other two similar recipes I found on 'Zaar as of this publication. This can be assembled up to 24 hours ahead of time and baked for 1 hour and 5 minutes before serving."

This is very similar to another corn pudding that I have had, except that the other dish had cubed bread instead of flour. I left out the red and green bell peppers, but did use the chopped onion. I skipped Step #6 and put it straight into the oven. The 55 minute cooking time was perfect. Thanks for another keeper, mersaydees. Recipenapped for Nov. 2009 Aus/NZ Swap.

I diced the onion & peppers very small, then followed your directions right down the line for a wonderful tasting corn pudding! The only thing I MIGHT do differently another time is to add a can of whole kernel corn, 'cause I really like to corn it up (my preference only)! Thanks for sharing a great recipe!
