Mexican Cornbread on steroids... (30)
In response to: Mexican cornbread is in the oven, and the butter is sitting on the side, ready to be "slapped & swabbed" on top of said muffin, when done. umm, ummm
Made a little adjustment to said recipe. Instead of using regular "whole kernel corn", I substituted for "whole kernel corn WITH small chopped/diced red & green bell peppers", PLUS I threw in a few small "pinches" of bacon bits in the mix.... tada!

Hello,Sounds yummy to my tummy.I have never made Mexican cornbread.That would taste good along with some chili etc.

Hi CC...
It's really easy... just fix you cornbread as usual, BUT.... also include shredded cheddar cheese, whole kernel corn, jalapeno (chopped/sliced) pepper. Just add the amount of extra ingredients to your likings....
I think next time I will chop up a small white onion, and add it. I like the white, because of the heat taste...
Let me know how it works out for you, CC....

This old tummy of mine can't take the 'heat taste' anymore.
The green and red peppers would be good for me as long they aren't hot ones.
If and when I make some I'll let you you know.

OK, would like to know how it worked for you...
Then the Jalapeno peppers might not be a good idea either... unless you use a bare minimum of them (maybe a pinch).. But, just use what you would think is good for you...

Why is it called Mexican?
I mean it.
And why is it.... on steroids?

Well, I didn't name it, so I have no idea of it's origin... but now that you brought it up... I just might Google it now.
"Steroids" is a descriptive word I used for the addition of the other ingredients, that are somewhat of an enhanced heat factor (with the exception of the bacon bits)....
Anything else lifeisadream?
Question: Why "lifeisadream"?

History of Mexican Cornbread
Although it is impossible to put a precise date on origins Mexican cornbread, it is often posited that this bread predates the arrival of European settlers in North America and would probably have been a staple food of the indigenous people of Mexico and North America for centuries, if not longer. Other sources claim that while corn would have been ground up and used in local cooking, it wasn’t until the arrival of Europeans and their food technology that Mexican cornbread as we recognize it today was first made.
Mexican Corn Bread Ingredients
Part of the appeal of Mexican cornbread, other than its fantastic taste, lies in the ease and simplicity with which it can be made. Although there are literally dozens of variations of cornbread each with slightly different ingredients, all types of Mexican cornbread contain the same basic four ingredients: Cornmeal, milk, eggs and cooking oil. Beyond these basic ingredients all sorts of flavors can be added by adding things such as onions, cheese, pepper or sugar.

Savory corn-bread is not something that we eat although; it could be eaten in some places of Mexico that I don’t know of. We do prepare different types of corn-bread but they are sweet because we have tortillas instead of any bread.
Life is a Dream
from Segimundo's monologue by Calderón de la Barca (1600-1681)
We live, while we see the sun,
Where life and dreams are as one;
And living has taught me this,
Man dreams the life that is his,
Until his living is done........

Ok! Thanks John
I used to have corn bread while in USA (New England) made by American’s friends and it was good but it is not something that I would bake to go with food because I like homemade tortillas better.

Good.
One of my favorite foods, is Mexican foods.
Taco Bell is almost a joke....
Way many years ago, back in the early 80's, I was fortunate enough to be invited to a, then girlfriend's family reunion. I was living in Colorado Springs, and the reunion was in Alamosa, Co. I was treated to dinner by her great grandmother (90+years of age), which consisted of original homemade chili (which was clear in color). That was the best meal I ever had, and never forgot it.
I guess that helps to explain my liking of spicy foods.

90 + y.o.?
Then her grandchild got the genes for longevity on one side.
One of the things that I liked living in USA was that as soon as spring was at the door, most everyone was looking for planting their seedlings for the gardens and it is such a special happiness to get fresh, organic veg from our own gardens.
Here (I live in a desertic area) we do not have the culture of gardening because veg are inexpensive and sometimes water can be a limiting factor.
Today I got:
Roma tomatoes 3 kg (6 pounds+) for $0.80 USA dollar.
My best favorite food is Mexican too but I might be biased.
Second one is Italian and I would try (most) any food from any cuisine.
Thanks for the Mexican corn Bread, just spicy enough!

WOW.... 6 lbs of Roma tomatoes for 80¢ US Dollar? Damn, here in my local store is a minimum of $1.49 per lb, and sometimes a "special price" at 99¢ per lb. Wow, 6 lbs here would be anywhere between $5.94 to $8.94 PLUS 9% tax... And I love tomatoes as you remember from my other thread of the squirrels issues... Fixing to have a tomato sandwich for supper. If only they were .80 per 6lbs here! That would be 13.3 cents per lb....
Interesting conversation, and information from you.

Tomatoes are in season that is why they are inexpensive, besides I got the cheapest which are the smallest because I am going to grind them for different types of salsa. But there are times when they are expensive considering that we use lots of tomatoes in our cooking.
The highest price for tomatoes here that I remember was like $24/kilo Pesos which is USA dollar $0.90 per pound and it happens during the winter season.
Other element to consider in vegetables is whether they are “field” grown or under greenhouses. The first ones are better and more nutritious as well.

Made a little adjustment to said recipe. Instead of using regular "whole kernel corn", I substituted for "whole kernel corn WITH small chopped/diced red & green bell peppers", PLUS I threw in a few small "pinches" of bacon bits in the mix.... tada!
