Mary Risley, director of Tante Marie's cooking school, says, "I dreamed up this recipe years ago when I was trying to cook Thanksgiving dinner on a four-burner stove with only one oven. And I've found that this is really the only vegetable needed to go with the turkey and mashed potatoes. It has the creamed onions everyone wants, it has the corn the Pilgrims must have eaten, and it has the fresh vegetables my Northern California friends and family have come to expect."

Preparation
Step 1
Cook onions in large saucepan of boiling water 1 minute. Drain and cool. Cut off root ends, then peel. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
Step 2
Combine onions and cream in heavy large skillet. Bring to boil over medium-high heat. Cover; boil until onions are almost tender, about 8 minutes. Uncover; boil until liquid is slightly reduced, about 4 minutes. Add bell pepper and zucchini. Cover; cook until almost tender, about 5 minutes. Add corn; reduce heat and simmer uncovered until vegetables are tender and sauce thickens, stirring occasionally, 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
