Vegetable Medley

My neighbor, Diane, made this for me and it's delicious! I just bought 2 ears of fresh corn and am anxious to prepare this again!

½ c. red pepper
½ c. celery
½ c. onion
1 T. olive oil
1 T. butter
Salt & pepper to taste
2 ears corn (or 1 c. canned)
½ c. Half & Half (or ¼ c. milk & ¼ c. heavy cream)
½ c. shredded cheese (Mexican 4-cheese blend)

Chop pepper, celery & onion. Simmer in oil and butter until tender. Remove corn from cob and add, simmering a couple minutes. Season to taste. Add Half & Half or milk & cream. Mix together & let simmer. Add cheese, then stir and serve.
