This was so good my eyes rolled in the back of my head. Instead of using a lot of milk, I used chicken broth and a splash of cream. I can't wait for the leftovers! Will make again and again.

Hubby and I just LOVED this casserole and what a great way to get rid of all those left over hot dogs from a picnic!! I used frozen potatoes since I had them and didn't feel like cutting fresh ones and it was delicious! I think next time I make it, I will use a bit more mustard as I used canned corn and it turned out a bit on the sweet side. Thanks for a wonderful recipe! This will go into our favorites!

We loved this! What a great blend of flavors, the kids and adults alike were scraping the pot to get every bit out - I'll be making a double batch next time! Only thing I changed was adding a little of my salt/pepper/garlic powder blend. Thanks to your mommy for a great recipe!

Who woulda known !!!!!This is great abd SOOOOO E-Z....I have a family of 6 to feed so I doubled the recipe. Only difference is for the second batch of corn I added frozen peas (just for added color), and also I had to get rid of some 1/2 and 1/2 I had in the fridge, so that took the place of some of the milk.....This is definatly going on the DO AGAIN list...Also, My 9 year old requested that I fry up somne bacon to top it with, (Which I natrually did).....It turned out to be a wonderful addition, and if you do it early enough, not any extra work......THANKS for a real keeper......
