Old School Hominy Casserole
- cooking spray
- 5 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped
- 1/3 large onion, diced
- 2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and diced (optional)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 (15.5 ounce) cans yellow hominy, drained
- 1 (4 ounce) jar pimentos, drained
- 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 9x9-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
- Cook bacon in a large skillet until almost crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Add onion and jalapeno peppers; cook and stir until just soft, 2 to 3 minutes. Toss in garlic; cook for 1 minute. Pour off and discard grease. Mix in hominy and pimentos; cook and stir for 1 minute. Add 1 1/2 cups of Cheddar cheese and salt and pepper to taste; stir until cheese is just melted, about 2 minutes. Transfer mixture to the casserole dish and top with remaining Cheddar cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven until Cheddar cheese is bubbly, about 20 minutes.
