Cheesy Mexican Cornbread
I got this recipe from one of The State Fair of Texas cookbooks. It's old and I couldn't find the year, but I started collecting these cookbooks when I got married (30 years ago). This is very good cornbread and it goes good with a big pot of pinto beans. The person that submitted the recipe is Debbie Hamilton from Garland, Texas. Hats off to her!
"This was great! I used corn muffin mix so I made a few changes to the recipe. I added 2/3 cup of milk, about half jar of medium salsa, and randomly added chunks of Colby jack cheese (just for the cheese lover in me!) It was delicious!!!" - jena82388Yield: 12 Ready in 40 minutes

Cheesy Mexican Cornbread Reviews

I've made this recipe a couple of times. It's a great easy cornbread recipe. I substituted cheddar because I did not have the longhorn cheese. It came out great.
It's awesome with chili.

This was so moist and sweet. I added a little chili powder sprinkled on top just for color and it gave it a little kick also. Thanks for this recipe.

Looks and smells as good as it tastes. Great right out of the skillet with ham and pinto beans and delicious the next morning with butter and honey!

Tasty dish. I only had one box of mix, so I had to adjust the recipe down. Made a 9' square pan. Good, not as dry as others I have tried.

I made this for an office party and it was a smash. I made cupcake cornbread.
Just make sure not to overflow it too much, they do rise! |

This was a big hit with the adults and children!! This is an addictive side dish!

This was FABULOUS, I ate this once in New Mexico at a restaurant and this recipe was just as good! It was everything i wanted it to be, next time i might add a little more jalepeno to give just a pinch more spice.

It needs something... i'm not sure what though... It was a little dry... I made it with some off brand corn bread mix because the store just happened to be out of Jiffy... i think that was part of the problems.

This has become a regular side item. My family loves it.

My husband said that this was the best corn bread that he ever tasted!
|
|
This going to be great with my chili recipe! Thanks!

Served it the first time to guests who loved it!! Next time I make it I'll add more jalapeno as we like it spicier.
