I love Mexican food. I need a 12 step program to help me recover. Hello. My name is Annmarie and I am a Mexican Food Addict.

“I’ll have the Vegetarian E and a Guacamole Mexicano.” I say that line 3 times a week. No lie.

I don’t cook much but when I do…I cook Mexican Cornbread. I KNOW. Here’s my recipe.

Ingredients:
1 cup Cornmeal
½ cups Flour
½ teaspoons Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Salt
2 whole Eggs
1 whole Jalapeno Peppper, Chopped, Don’t De-seed if you like your mouth to be on fire. I De-seed. My mouth is hot tempered as it is.
1 cup Milk
1 cup Grated Cheddar Cheese
½ cups Melted Butter
1 can Small Diced Green Chilies
1 can Cream Style Corn 14.75 Oz

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375.

Thoroughly stir all ingredients together in a med/large bowl.

Pour into a well greased or non-stick-sprayed 9 X 13 pan. I use an iron skillet. It makes the cornbread taste so much better. It does. Swearsies.

Bake for 40-45 minutes or until toothpick in center comes out clean.

I serve this with chili. You can serve it with any Mexican fare. OR. I can be a meal unto itself.

Enjoy!

Today I am learning how to machine quilt. I’m using the trial and error method. More error than trial. I’m making a Hello Kitty wall hanging or blankie. Did I mention machine quilting is HARD?

Though I don’t miss anyone, I love this song. I like the title. The artist sings this as if she’s missing a lover. I sing this as if I’m missing the strong woman I once was.

Enjoy!
