Pastel de Elote or "Corn Pie"

My first Thanksgiving away from home was my during freshman year at Colorado State University. Lucky for me there was a gal whose family lived in Fort Collins and invited me into their home for the holiday. This post is a recipe Mrs. Bowers shared and that I have used every Thanksgiving since. You will need:
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 can of corn
  • 10 ounces frozen corn
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1/2 cup corn meal
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 4 ounces Jack cheese cut into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 4 ounces cheddar cheese into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 4 ounces diced green chiles
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp Worcestershire
  • salsa 
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Grease 10 inch pie pan.
  3. Beat eggs.
  4. Add remaining ingredients and continue mixing.
  5. Bake for 1 hour.
  6. Serve with salsa.
Thanks Mrs. Bowers!
