Ive forgotten but--what is the proper name to call this meal? Cornbread thread.

[the ringo kid]

I was wondering what the proper name for this meal is?

Since food is being discussed here and making me hungry for trying something new--or something I havent done in ages.

I was thinking of doing this with my next batch of cornbread. Mixing with the cornbread--a can of corn, mixing two types of grated cheese--probably cheddar and Mozzerella cheese,then mixing some pre-cooked pizza topping meats--like the Spicey Italian and also Hamburger--and baking it with the cornbread and making this a one dish meal.

Ive done the above using biscuit dough,but never in cornbread mix. The biscuit meal was one of the best I ever made--but havent made it for over twenty five years. The biscuit meal--also HAD to have cream gravy to pour over it. Anyway,anyone know what they call this concoction?would it be something like meal loaf???

I could tell you what I'd call it, but I don't think you'd like it.

Just kidding. I remember having something like that back in 60s, but I can't remember what it was called, either.

Almost like sheperd's pie but with cornbread instead of mashed taters on top.

Mexican Cornbread? Sounds tasty, minus the corn, may try this soon. Used to have something similar, put some chili in a dish, add a layer of cheese, then put cornbread mix on top, bake.

I make something similar that I've always heard called cornbread casserole.

Mix up your cornbread batter, add blackeyed peas and chopped ham or bacon . Place in a greased dutch oven and bake. Dad would put sausage and cheese in his cornbread on occasion. My dad was from Arkansas and my mom from Ohio. Mom loved dad dearly and tried to make home cooking for him on occasion, which meant blackeye cornbread and ham. However she always cooked the cornbread in a muffin pan and dad always used a baking pan. I took after dad I guess because I make mine in a cast iron frying pan.

Ruthie and I put cornbread batter, onions, bell peppers, jalapenos and bacon bits in a cast iron skillet. Serve with pinto beans and ham.

That's what I'm talking about.

Growing up in NE Indiana, I remember eating corn meal mush sliced and fried in butter. We would pour maple syrup on the slices.

I'd call it a hell of a meal, if the cornbread is not sweet.

Sweet cornbread is cake.

It's called "Corn Bread With Stuff In It".

Whew. I'm glad I got that. It's been bugging me all day.

Isn't cornbread with sugar called Johnny cake?

Here in the south most of use don't like anything messing with our corn bread and sure don't want corn mixed in anything most times. And yes Florida is in the south and even though the commie states keep sending their old and dieing down here some of us are holding our own.

I've made a "Mexican Cornbread" using red pepper flakes, green peppers, and corn. Bit more savory but still great on butter. Serve it with red-beans and ham pieces or limas and ham.

Fried mush with syrup==now THAT is a red-neck breakfast--along with some good bacon and maybe some scrambled eggs with a good salsa.

Hypertension bread? Stroke muffins?

Kinda.I had heard of Shepards pie before but never saw any or ate any--untill about three years ago. I liked it well enough. I think id have liked it more had they used roast beef instead of hamburger meat.
