Chili Cheese Cornbread
Description: Take a boring box of cornbread mix (or your favorite cornbread recipe) from boring to WOW with a few simple ingredients.
Ingredients
- 2 boxes Corn bread/muffin mix ($0.84)
- 2 large eggs ($0.24)
- 2/3 cup milk ($0.22)
- 3 tbsp chili powder ($0.15)
- 1 cup frozen corn kernels ($0.32)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar ($0.99)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Take one cup of frozen corn kernels out of the freezer and allow them to begin thawing.
- Empty the contents of two boxes of cornbread mix into a large bowl. Thoroughly mix 3 Tbsp of chili powder into the dry mix.
- Mix the eggs, milk and corn kernels into the dry cornbread mix. Do not over stir, just mix until the ingredients are combined. Let the mixture sit for 4-5 minutes.
- Pour the mix into a large glass casserole or muffin tin (both coated with non-stick spray). Sprinkle one cup of shredded cheese on top and bake for 20-25 minutes. The chili powder will make the muffins/bread appear much more brown on top than usual so use a toothpick to test the doneness (a toothpick inserted in the middle should come out clean, not with raw goo on it).
