A trio of peppers livens up this comforting side dish. "I've had this recipe for many years," says Virginia Anthony, Jacksonville, Florida. "I lightened it up from the original by using reduced-fat sour cream and milk, plus some egg substitute. It tastes just as good...but it's much better for us!"

Ingredients

1 medium sweet red pepper, chopped
6 green onions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies, drained
3 medium jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
2 packages (10 ounces each) frozen corn, thawed, divided
1 can (12 ounces) reduced-fat evaporated milk
1/3 cup reduced-fat sour cream
1/4 cup fat-free milk
3 egg whites
2 eggs
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3/4 teaspoon ground thyme

Directions

In a nonstick skillet, saute the red pepper and onions in oil until tender. Remove from the heat. Stir in the chilies, jalapenos and half of the corn. Transfer to a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray.
In a blender, combine the remaining ingredients; add remaining corn. Cover and process for 3 minutes or until smooth. Pour over red pepper mixture.
Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 45-50 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Yield: 12 servings.

Editor's Note: Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
