Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures the oven is at the right temperature when you’re ready to bake the casserole.
2. Cook the pasta: In a medium or large pot, bring water to a boil. Add a pinch of salt and the gluten-free pasta to the boiling water. Cook according to the package instructions until the pasta is al dente. Once cooked, drain the pasta and set it aside.
3. Prepare the corn mixture: Open the cans of sweet corn and drain them completely. In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained sweet corn and the cooked pasta.
4. Melt the butter: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, pour the butter over the corn and pasta mixture. Stir well to ensure everything is evenly coated with the butter.
5. Add the cheese: Shred the mozzarella cheese if it’s not pre-shredded. Add half of the shredded mozzarella cheese to the corn and pasta mixture, and stir to combine.
6. Assemble the casserole: Transfer the corn and pasta mixture into a baking dish (approximately 9x13 inches) and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese over the top.
7. Bake the casserole: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese on top is melted and bubbly and the casserole is heated through.
8. Serve: Once baked, remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together better.
9. Enjoy: Serve warm and enjoy your gluten-free corn casserole with mozzarella cheese!
