Sausage-Corn Bake Recipe

In a large skillet, cook the sausage, green pepper and onion over medium heat until sausage is no longer pink; drain and set aside. In a large saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour, salt and pepper. Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in corn. Add noodles and corn mixture to the sausage mixture. Fold in the cheese. Transfer to a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Melt remaining butter; stir in bread crumbs. Sprinkle over casserole. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 30-40 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 6-8 servings.
