I got recipes for both somewhere, better go take a look....

I don't remember if I have the recipe for the REALLY good corn casserole that one of my acquaintances used to make or not. But worth a check.... (It was so good that everyone took seconds or thirds)

Corn Pudding (i stole this recipe of the web but its pretty much the same)

Ingredients:
5 eggs
1/3 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 cup milk
4 tablespoons cornstarch
1 (15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn
2 (14.75 ounce) cans cream-style corn


In a large bowl, lightly beat eggs. Add melted butter, sugar, and milk. Whisk in cornstarch. Stir in corn and creamed corn. Blend well. Pour mixture into prepared casserole dish.
Preheat oven to 400 Degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 2 quart casserole dish.
Bake for 1 hour.



Corn Chowder
stolen from the web, sounds like mine but i use more bacon and i also add kielbasa

Ingredient
1/2 cup diced bacon
4 medium potatoes, peeled and chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cups water (or chicken broth)
3 cups cream-style corn
2 teaspoons salt
ground black pepper to taste
2 cups half-and-half


Directions
Place the bacon in a large pot over medium-high heat, and cook until crisp. Drain and crumble, reserving about 2 tablespoons drippings in the pot.
Mix potatoes and onion into the pot with the crumbled bacon and reserved drippings. Cook and stir 5 minutes. Pour in the water, and stir in corn. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and cover pot. Simmer 20 minutes, stirring frequently, until potatoes are tender.
Warm the half-and-half in a small saucepan until it bubbles. Remove from heat before it boils, and mix into the chowder just before serving.
