"Healthified Creamed Corn

This recipe is tasty and easy. The recipe called for "fat free" half & half but I thought that sounded weird, and I couldn't find it anyway, so I guess mine wasn't as "healthified". : ) And I left out the green onions because I forgot to buy them, but Jeff was o.k. with that. ha ha.

2 bags (12 oz. each) frozen corn niblets
