Loaded Cornbread

It’s time for the big game again!!!  Super Bowl Sunday.  Otherwise known as the day we get to go to “Appetizer Heaven”.  Whether we like football or not, at least it is the one day of the year that we get to eat pizza, wings, chili, nachos, and dip, all in one setting.  And hey, it will do one of two things for us…Allow us to declare that our New Year’s Resolution has officially been broken…Or, convince us that we can eat yummy food and be athletic at the same time.  Just not sure if watching a football game counts as being athletic.  So, I promise you, I do love to cook healthy recipes, homemade dishes with whole ingredients, but there are some times, like Super Bowl Sunday that we get to cheat just a little.  So, let me help by adding a recipe that is so amazing and sure to be a hit at your Super Bowl spread.  How about some Loaded Cornbread to go with that chili?

Loaded Cornbread

Loaded Cornbread, you say?  What defines Loaded Cornbread?  Well, this recipe starts with your basic cornbread ingredients.  Then by adding cream style corn, and creamy buttermilk, you create a moist and light base for your cornbread.  But, what takes it over the top is the savory and spicy additions that make it the most amazing cornbread you will ever eat.  So how does cornbread with some sweet onion in it sound?  Then, how about adding in some jalapenos and red peppers?  But wait, lots of cheddar cheese, not only in the batter, but baked on top of the cornbread as well?  And finally, and this is where the angels sing…crispy bacon…yes, bacon dancing throughout the soft cornbread.  Now, that is Loaded Cornbread!

Loaded Cornbread

I am not sure when I first made this Loaded Cornbread recipe for my family.  What I do know is that from the first time it was baked, my family was hooked.  I have loved making it over the years for dinner, pot luck’s and especially for football parties!

Loaded Cornbread

So, enjoy this incredible recipe for your Super Bowl Party.  Or, if you do not want to tackle (no pun intended) the grocery store, save it for the next time chili is on the menu or serve it with a crisp dinner salad to make a meal out of it.  Or, I know, how about with some Chicken Tortilla Soup?  Lots of options for enjoying this wonderful cornbread.  Happy Super Bowl Weekend from the Memorable Kitchen!
