Today for Potluck Sunday I want to share a cornbread recipe. Now this isn't your regular cornbread by any means, but cornbread with a twist instead.You see down here in Texas we like things a little spicier than most folks. So adding a little heat to a traditional cornbread recipe is the perfect idea.
Creamed corn, onions, Velveeta Pepper Jack and jalapenos, what a tasty combination.
A lot of you have probably had Mexican Cornbread and that is what this Pepper Jack Cornbread reminds me of.
If you're not a big fan of spicy then leave out the jalapenos and just go with the pepper jack cheese. But if you like it hot then add those puppies because they are so good!
I have made this recipe twice once with Velveeta's pepper jack cheese and the second time with the Mexican mild. I had to use the Mexican Velveeta because the pepper jack Velveeta is hard to come by. So if you happen to come across it at the grocery store take it from me and buy it because they are really scarce.
I got this recipe from Rachel over at A Southern Fairytale. Rachel is one of my fellow Velveeta Kitchenista and this was her original recipe submission.
This cornbread is quite tasty to say the least and goes perfectly perfectly with a big pot of chili, pinto beans or even soup.
I hope you will give this cornbread a try because you can't have too many cornbread recipes.
Do you have a recipe you would like to bring to our potluck? If so then link directly to your post not your homepage. Please include a link back to Mommy's Kitchen, so everyone can view all of the delicious recipes. I can't wait to see what everyone is bringing. In usual fashion the full recipe is at the end of this post.
Velveeta Pepper Jack Cornbread
3 - cups regular yellow cornbread mix or jiffy corn muffin mix (not cornmeal)
2 - cups creamed corn
1 - 12 oz package Velveeta Pepper Jack Cheese
or Velveeta Mexican Mild grated
1- small yellow onion, grated
2 oz - pickled jalapenos slices, optional
3 - eggs
Mix all the ingredients together and pour into a 9X13 baking dish sprayed with baking spray.
Bake at 425 degrees for 30 minutes. Cool in pan and slice into 12 equal squares.
This cornbread is like a thick, moist, spicy cake. It is delicious served hot and drizzled with honey.
