Mexican cornbread

Nadia_H · Mar 18th, 2004, 05:37 PM

Give it a shot, folks.

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cup Bisquick Baking Mix
2/3 cup cornmeal
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
2/3 cup whole corn (i.e., the cans of corn they sell in the stores in the same section as the spaghetti and other pasta stuff)
1-2 jalapeno peppers (depending upon personal preference), chopped into small pieces

Directions:

Preheat oven to ~400 degrees. Mix the following in a bowl until lightly moistened: Bisquick Mix, cornmeal, sugar, salt, milk, oil, and eggs. After mixture is lightly moistened, gently add in cheese, corn and jalapeno peppers. Mix together. Pour into rectangular pan. Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack before you cut it (otherwise you'll cut it too soon and it will break up into small pieces ruining the outward look of it).

Believe me, it's a really good snack. It won some sort of award, i dunno what the award was. It was featured in one of the Betty Crocker's Bisquick book recipes.

If anyone tries it out, let me know how it goes.

Oh I had thought you wanted someone to test it out for you.

Is this approved for the Atkins diet?

Paki Maryam, :flower1: No problemos. :) i find it a really nice snack.. plus it's kind of healthy.

Belle, woohoo :) Sorry i should have said - it's Cheddar cheese. It's just a nice snack, i find. i think the corn and cheese combination is what gives it its unique flavour. i've made it many times, it's just a good snack around evening time i guess... goes absolutely perfectly with chai!!!

OG, No, i'm afraid not.

Yay! You know what's funny is that, just today i was looking for recipes online that use Bisquick because my mom bought a huge box from Costco, what a coincidence. Thanks again Nadia

aw Belle

You're so sweet and kind. Thank you for saying you will try it out

i dunno if you will like it though

It's not AS great as maybe i am making it out to be...maybe it's just my personal tastebuds :~/ But it's an okay snack...goes great with chai, i think.

i hope you like it. And thanks for saying you'll try it out

Really appreciate that.
