Make-Over Jiffy Corn Casserole

I’ve had so many requests in the last few years to make this corn casserole over, so by popular demand I decided to tackle this. My cousin always makes corn casserole for Thanksgiving every year so I knew just where to turn for a good starting point. It’s an easy corn casserole using Jiffy corn muffin mix as a base along with canned corn and creamed corn. I added yogurt and egg whites to lighten the original and it was delcious.
