Corn and Mixed Vegetable Casserole
The Corn and Mixed Vegetable Casserole consists of cooked celery and onion mixed with canned corn, mixed vegetables, American cheese, and mayonnaise, all baked under a crushed Ritz cracker topping with butter drizzle. The casserole yields a creamy, savory side dish featuring tender vegetables softened through cooking and baking, complemented by a mildly crispy cracker crust.
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter divided, salted
- 1 cup celery finely chopped
- ½ cup yellow onion finely chopped
- 30 ounces mixed vegetables canned, drained
- 15 ounces corn canned whole, drained
- 4 ounces American cheese grated or finely chopped (about 1 cup)
- ¾ cup mayonnaise
- 1 ritz cracker crushed, sleeve
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Melt half of the butter over medium heat in a saute pan and cook the celery and onion until softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer to a large bowl.
- To the bowl, add the mixed vegetables, corn, American cheese and mayonnaise and stir to combine. Transfer the mixture to a square casserole dish and sprinkle the crushed Ritz crackers over top. Melt the remaining butter and drizzle over the top.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until golden brown on top. Allow to sit for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Assemble up to one day ahead and refrigerate; add extra baking time as needed when baking from chilled.
- Let the casserole rest for 10 minutes after baking before serving for best texture.
- Drain canned vegetables thoroughly to avoid excess moisture in the casserole.
