Cornbread Pie.

Another co-worker made soup and this wonderful version of cornbread for us. While it is not a traditional Southern version, it was delicious with the soup. It is sweeter than regular cornbread.

Cornbread Pie

1 cup margarine (may use part Crisco)
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
1 4oz can chopped green chilies
1 16oz can creamed corn
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup flour
1 cup yellow corn meal
4 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt

Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Cream butter and sugar; add eggs one at a time. Add chilies, corn, cheese, and mix well. Sift dry ingredients together and add to corn mixture. Pour into either a 8x12x12 or 9x13 pan, turn over down to 300 degrees, and bake for one hour.

You do realize that we will be expecting a soup recipe to accompany this don't you?

My dad made one similar to this the last time he visited. His did not have the sugar, but it did had sausage. It was delicious.
