Corn Casserole with Green Chiles & Cotija Cheese

Wish I would have taken a picture...

All I can say was this was good.  I'm venturing out writing more recipes because I realized it's kind of silly for me to write about other people's recipes.  So here goes...  Recipe #3 for the week - written by me. 

Corn Casserole with Green Chiles & Cotija Cheese

1/2 diced onion
2 cloves minced garlice
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 cups frozen corn
1 cup sour cream
1 7 ounce can green chiles
1/2 cup cotija cheese, crumbled
Jiffy Cornbread mix or similar size
2 eggs

1/2 cup melted butter
Salt & Pepper to taste

Preheat your oven to 350.  While oven is preheating, saute the onion and garlic until translucent in the olive oil.  In a big mixing bowl, combine the corn, sour cream, chiles, and cheese.  In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, cornbread mix, and melted butter.  Combine both and pour into a 9X9 baking dish.  Bake for 45 minutes or until the center sets and the top is golden brown.  Serve hot.  Try not to eat it all before your guests or family have it.

I think you could add cheddar cheese or pepper jack for a bit more kick.  I thought about adding chopped jalapeno but decided not to this time.
