Bratwurst and Sweet Corn Casserole

You don’t have to settle for boring, not when you can have all the excitement you need in our Bratwurst & Sweet Corn Casserole! Yes, brats! Come to find out bratwurst plays very well with sweet corn and few other casserole cast members. I invited onion, parsley, and tomatoes along for the ride, too. And what do you know, there was room for everybody. I also used a super yummy Alfredo and cream of mushroom soup mix to keep this creamy and pretty much irresistible. I topped everything off with shredded cheese, grape tomatoes, and a few breadcrumbs. Look down below for the complete recipe.
