Corn Casserole

Corn usually gets a bad wrap because it is a high starch, high glycemic vegetable.  However, when eaten in moderation and balanced with protein, it can complement any low-glycemic/low carb lifestyle.

16 oz. frozen corn
5 strips bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
2 eggs
1 packet Truvia
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
3/4 c. grated cheddar cheese

Beat eggs until light and fluffy.  Add sugar.  Stir in corn, 3/4 of the bacon, salt, pepper and cheese.  Put into sprayed casserole dish and top with remaining bacon.  Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until set.

4 servings, each with approximately 5 carbs and 12 gms of protein.
