ABOUT Cheesy Mexican Cornbread.... RECIPE

Native Americans have been using ground corn before Europeans for making cornbread since thousands of years. The cornbread has been a popular one in the Southern regions of America where corn is considered as gold. This version of cornbread is a modified one with the addition of cheese and veggies. It tastes so very heavenly and can be very well eaten on it's own. Green chillies render a little sharp touch to the whole bread and can be very well omitted. Jalapenos can be replaced with our local green chillies as i did. Try this awesome bread for your families and relish it's enticing flavour and texture. Happy Baking People !!!!!!!
