We left for a week's vacation on Friday, and were dutifully trying to eat through all the perishables in the fridge all week. Friday came and we still had eggs, bread, cheese and milk left - plus some basil and a zucchini - so I grabbed a can of corn and created this savory bread pudding. The best part is when we get home we'll have this yummy dish in the freezer ready to heat and eat.
