Freezer Friendly confetti corn is a quick side dish that can be frozen. 10 minutes hands on prep and basic ingredients make it a recipe you go back to again and again.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup onion, chopped
- 1 cup red bell pepper, chopped
- 4 cups frozen corn kernels
- 3 Tbs. unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. black pepper
- 1 Tbs. fresh chives
- 1 Tbs. fresh parsley
Instructions
Freezer Bag Assembly Instructions:
- Combine 1/4 cup of onion, 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper and 2 cups of corn into each of 2 gallon sized Ziplock freezer bags.
- In a small bowl, combine butter, salt, pepper, chives and parsley. Shape into a 3-inch log. Wrap in plastic wrap and freeze for 1 hour, or until firm. Cut the butter into 4 slices. Place 2 slices into each of the assembled freezer bags.
