– 1/2 cup of diced jalapenos
– 1/2 cup of sour cream
– 1/4 cup of mayonnaise

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish.

Cooking Hacks:
For a spicier kick, you can leave the jalapeno seeds in when dicing them. If you prefer a milder flavor, make sure to deseed the jalapenos before adding them to the casserole.
To add an extra layer of flavor, consider mixing in some cooked and crumbled bacon into the casserole mixture before baking.
If you’re short on time, you can use canned or frozen corn instead of fresh corn kernels. Just make sure to drain the canned corn or thaw the frozen corn before using.
