Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  2. Drain the corn, reserving a small amount for garnish if desired.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the beaten eggs, skim milk, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  4. Stir in the drained corn and sliced green onions into the egg mixture.
  5. Spray two individual 12-oz ramekins or small casseroles with non-stick cooking spray.
  6. Divide the corn and egg mixture evenly between the prepared ramekins.
  7. Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
  8. While baking, combine the fine dry breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and melted margarine in a small bowl.
  9. After 25 minutes, remove the ramekins from the oven and sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of each timbale.
  10. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
  11. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with reserved corn and green onions if desired.
