Ingredients

2 ( 14-ounce cans) hominy drained
3 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 and ½ cups milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 and ½ cups cheddar cheese shredded
2 ounces chopped pimentos
1/3 to 1/2 cup bacon bits

Instructions

Drain hominy.
Cook bacon and crumble if you are not using precooked bacon bits.
Melt butter in a large saucepan.
Add flour, whisk and cook 2 minutes.
Whisk in milk and simmer 2 minutes
Add salt, pepper, and onion powder. Whisk to combine.
Add 1 cup cheese and stir until it melts.
Stir in pimento and hominy.
Pour into an oven-safe casserole dish. (An 8x8, 9x9, or 8x12 inch dish works best.)
Top with additional 1/2 cup cheese and cooked, crumbled bacon.
Bake at 350°F degrees until bubbly and cheese is melted approximately 25 to 30 minutes.
*Tip I always like to place my casserole dish on a baking pan with at least a 1 inch side in case the casserole cooks over.
