Recipe FAQs

Can you make Mexican street corn beef casserole the night before?

Yes! You can prepare the casserole the night before then cover and refrigerate. When ready to bake, simply pop it into a preheated oven and bake according to the directions.

Can I substitute creamed corn for corn?

You can, however, it’s not necessary with this recipe due to it already having mayo and sour cream mixed into the topping.

Is Mexican street corn beef casserole gluten-free?

This recipe as written is not gluten-free because Jiffy corn muffin mix is not a gluten-free product. If you need to adapt the recipe to a gluten-free version, I would suggest using Bob’s Red Mill gluten-free cornbread mix.
