In a bowl mix up for favorite Jalapeno or Mexican Cornbread mix.  I recommend a non sweet one. I picked up a different brand this time (Zatarain’s), because they were out of the one I typically use (Martha White) and it ended up being sweet. So I would not use that one again with this recipe. I like a completely savory flavor with this dish.

    I have made this dish for potlucks for years. I make the cornbread from scratch adding jalapenos and a cup of sharp cheddar grated to the batter. I never have leftovers when taking it to a potluck. When making it at home, I really like leftovers for lunch the next day!

  2. I love everything about this dish! Hearty and flavorful. Perfect comfort food. Thanks for sharing your recipe with us.
