Non-stick cooking spray

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Add the milk, oil, corn, jalapeño peppers, and Mexican cooking sauce. Stir well.

Notes

If you do not have creamed corn, add a can of corn into the food processor and process for about a minute. Then it will become thick like creamed corn and you can use that in the recipe.
