Low Fat Southwestern Corn and Pepper Gratin

1 tsp. olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup diced green bell pepper
1 cup diced red bell pepper
3/4 tsp. salt, divided
1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper
2 3/4 cup fresh corn kernels, about 4 ears, divided
2 tablespoon minced seeded jalapeno pepper
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1/4 cup (1 ounce) grated sharp cheddar cheese
Cooking spray
3/4 cup skim milk
1/4 cup nonfat dry milk
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
3 large eggs

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onions; sauté 5 minutes or until tender. Add bell peppers, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper; sauté 5 minutes. Add 2 cups corn, jalapeno, and cumin; sauté 5 minutes or until peppers are crisp-tender. Remove from heat, and stir in cheese. Spoon 3/4 cup bell pepper mixture into each of four 2-cup gratin dishes coated with cooking spray.

Combine 3/4 cup corn, teaspoon salt, milks, flour, and eggs in a blender and process until smooth. Pour about cup egg mixture over vegetables in each dish. Place dishes on a baking sheet. Bake at 425 degrees for 25 minutes or until golden.

Makes 4 servings.
