A. This is the best corn side dish just the way it is. However, if you are looking to spice your creamy side dish up a little bit, you can add some (or all) of the following: 1. Chopped green onions 2. Jalapeño slices (for a real touch of heat) 3. Sour cream - about 1/4 cup 4. Green chilies 5. Fresh Thyme 6. Fresh Rosemary 7. Pepper jack cheese
