They came out great. I am going to have them again tonight. :thumbs2:

for Cornbread, I use the recipe on the back of the Aunt Jemima cornmeal bag.

I make a cornbread casserole using it too:
Golden Corn Bread
1 cup Aunt Jemima Corn Meal
1 cup all purpose flour
1/4 c sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 egg
1/4 cup vegetable oil

Preheat oven to 425 degrees - prep a cast iron skillet with grease, place in oven so the skillet will get hot

In large bowl combine to mix dry ingredients
Add milk, egg & oil. Beat until fairly smooth (about 1 minute)

Filling:
1 lb hamburger - browned and drained
1 can pinto beans (NOT RANCH STYLE)
1 tsp oregano
2 tsp basil
2 tsp parsley
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)

Velveeta
1 small container sour cream.

After the hamburger is browned and drained, add the can of pinto beans with the juice. Add the other spices and cook to warm the beans & spices through.

Pour about 1/2 the cornbread batter into a skillet to fill the bottom of the pan.

Top the batter with the meat mixture. When adding the layers of meat, cheese and sour cream, keep about 1/2 inch "clean" border around the outside circumference of the batter layer.

Cut the velveeta in slices and cover the meat mixture. Top the velveeta with the sour cream.

Top with the remaining cornmeal batter -- this time filling all the way to the edge.

Bake 20-25 minutes or until wooden pick inserted into the cornbread comes out clean

Sweet cake-like cornbread
I haven't made these, but they come highly recommended. Read the reviews and see what you think. The only recipe I have still saved is a vegan version, but you'd probably like these eggs and buttermilk varieties if you're looking for cake-like.

Glad you're still enjoying that recipe!

Heres another one for yall to try....wife and I LOVED this one tonight. I took a pic, but having trouble uploading it.

Filipino Chicken Adobo:

1 package of Chicken Breast Tenderloins
1 cup of Soy Sauce
1 cup of Vinegar
12 cloves of garlic
Salt and Pepper
Rice

Let the chicken soak in the soy, vinegar, salt and pepper and 10 cloves of the garlic. I marinaded this for an hour and when we ate the chicken was falling apart on the fork (which is how I like it.) If you'd prefer it to stay together, I'd recommend only marinading for 30 minutes, but you may lose some flavor.

Put vegetable oil in a skillet, and brown the other 2 cloves of garlic. Brown the chicken, then put them back into a pot along with the marinade. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and let simmer for at least 30 minutes (I let mine simmer for an hour).

Make the rice, and use it as a bed for the chicken.

To go with this, we had Misua, or noodle soup. This is a quick 10 minute prep, so don't make it until the adabo is close to done.

Misua:
4 cups of chicken broth
1 thinly sliced onion
2 cloves of garlic
4 eggs
pepper and patis to taste. (patis is thai fish sauce. Should be able to find at HEB, etc)
Misua (chinese noodles)
green onion

Heat up a little oil in a saucepan, saute garlic. When garlic is brown, add onion and saute as well.
add the chicken broth, bring to a boil, then add pepper at patis to taste.
lower the heat to a simmer, add misua and crack the eggs into the saucepan.
Break up the yokes by stirring, and simmer until eggs and misua are cooked.
add chopped up green onion to top and serve hot.

To go with this Filipino meal, we had spanish wine sangria.

1 bottle of spanish tempranillo wine
1 1/2 cups of ginger ale
1 cup of brandy
1/2 cup of orange juice
1/2 cup of sugar
lemon and lime juice to taste.

Serve chilled.

Enjoy! :txflag:
