I love to start with some pre made box items like a cornbread mix and make a home cooked meal out of it. We are all very busy and I don’t want to spend too much time in the kitchen but still want to prepare and eat great food. I paired this with chilli recipe to follow.
Cornbread
Cornbread
I pour on box of cornbread mix in a bowl. I will follow the box instructions but to that I will add any or all of the following items: chopped green chilies, jalapenos, peppers of any color, onion, black beans, cheese of any kind and any other Mexican item you want to add. Now you can add about 1/3 of a cup of each item above. You could add some seasoning now and anything you like is fine. I added some Tai Pepper powder. If it seems too wet when you are done adding extra things you can add a little flour.
Mix ingredients and put into a nonstick sprayed pan. I used a 9 x 9 for mine.
Bake the cornbread on 350 for about 40 to 60 minutes or until it is not tacky when poked in the center with a toothpick.
This spice cornbread is great when served with Chili. That recipe is to follow.
