- 3 tbsp. butter
- 3 tbsp. all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. chili powder
- 2 1/2 cups whole milk
- 2 cups shredded Pepper Jack cheese
- 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs

- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Arrange corn and frozen vegetables on a prepared sheet pan. Bake 12–14 minutes or until tender, stirring once halfway through. Remove from oven and turn on broiler.
- In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium-high heat. Whisk in the flour and chili powder until smooth. Slowly whisk in milk. Bring to a simmer, whisking to prevent any lumps.
