RECIPE: Great cornbread recipe

19 years ago

Onion Supper Bread

1/2 cup chopped onion

2 Tbl butter

1 6 oz pkg cornbread mix --Mexican cornbread will be great as well

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Saute onion and butter

Prepare cornbread by pkg directions

Spoon into a greased square pyrex dish. Sprinkle with onion.

Combine sour cream and cheese, spoon over onion. Think I'll combine. Bake at 400 for 25 minutes or until lightly browned.

Let stand a few minutes before cutting into squares.

Enjoy!!

Gonna make chicken/sausage gumbo this weekend, and think cornbread will compliment the gumbo.

    Sounds great!

    I use the Martha White yellow corn meal mix. I basically follow the directions, but I substitute buttermilk for milk, and I add a small can of whole Mexican corn, drained, and then add the shredded cheese with a couple of drops of hot sauce. Sometimes, I'll add pork cracklings and/or jalapeños. I pour the mixture into a very hot cast iron skillet that has a little bacon fat in it and cook for the given time on the package.

    I serve mine with pinto beans or black beans. Oh, and yes I realize this isn't a heart-healthy recipes, but it is very easy and very good

    This really is good!

    I make something similar, but make the cornbread using a can of creamed corn and an egg -- sometimes I'll add some diced green chilies to the batter.

    I also saute a whole diced onion in a little butter first, then use about 1 cup each of sour cream and grated cheese that is gently combined with the onion and spooned on top of the cornbread batter. I usually reserve a bit of the cheese to sprinkle on top but it's not necessary.

    It's more like a spoon bread and definitely not health/diet-friendly...but it's always a big hit when I make it for gatherings!

    I make the regular cornbread using the recipe off the box. And then add some chopped broccoli and chopped green onions and sometimes I add a bit of sharp yellow cheese. It does not raise as much as the regular cornbread and so I usually put it in a muffin pan and make Broccoli Cornbread Muffins. It's delicious.

    My DD used to use the corn bread mix to make this casserole when we had a houseful of hungry teens to feed:

    CORN DOG CASSEROLE (12 servings)

    1 cup thinly sliced celery
    1 1/2 cups chopped onions
    3 Tbs. butter or margarine
    1 1/2 lbs. hot dogs
    2 eggs
    1 1/2 cups milk
    1/2 tsp. sage or poultry seasoning (I only use 1/4 tsp.)
    1/4 tsp. pepper
    2 packages (8 ½ oz. each) corn bread/muffin mix
    2 cups (8 oz.) shredded cheddar cheese, divided

    In a skillet, saute celery and onion in butter or margarine over med-low heat until soft but not browned. Place in bowl; set aside.

    Cut hot dogs lengthwise into quarters, then cut into thirds. In the same skillet, saute the hot dogs for 5 minutes or until lightly browned; add to vegetables. Set aside 1 cup of mixture.

    In a large bowl, combine eggs, milk, sage and pepper. Add the larger quantity of the hot dog mixture. Stir in corn bread mixes and 1 1/ 2 cups of cheese.

    Spread into a shallow greased 3 quart baking dish. Top with the 1 cup of reserved hot dog mixture and 1/ 2 cup of cheese. Bake, uncovered at 400 degrees for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
