Can you share your chili and Cornbread pancake recipe?? I think my family would LOVE those!
Sure! But I think I actually got the cornbread pancakes from Jane!!! At least it is a variation of hers so she might be able to help as well.
My Chili is standard--I use (browned) ground turkey, onions, beans, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder and pepper in my crock pot. I'm not so much for measuring...I just dump it all in there! We love SPICE so I use a lot of it.
The cornbread pancakes are super easy and SO good at the bottom of a chili bowl!
I just use some Jiffy cornbread mix (follow recipe), add some shredded cheese, a little bit of sour cream, and drop spoonfuls onto a griddle. They quickly cook up into something yummy!
We pour our chili over the pancakes!
kristen - I wondered if you got the idea from me! :) so happy people are using stuff from the site...
so, that's pretty much what I do. here's the "recipe" (which is on the "side dishes" page as well)
CORN CAKE TOPPERS
These are awesome with chili! Mix Jiffy cornbread mix, following the corn pancakes directions on the box. Sometimes I add a bit of sour cream. I also add chopped green onion and shredded cheese. Cook on buttered griddle like pancakes. Top your chili and enjoy!
Sometimes I don't but the cheese in the batter... makes the pancakes a little stickier on the skillet, so I'll put the cheese on the chili, then the corn topper on top of that.
*sigh* I have a stupid house guest coming for 10 days! My hubby's buddy from high school that thinks Denny's and Burger King are acceptable dining establishments is coming on Weds. As a result we're going very "meat & potatoes" this week. (In no particular order.)
-Tacos
-Pot Roast w/Potatoes and Carrots
-Pork Chops w/Rice and Broccoli
-Steaks w/Baked Potatoes and Cabbage Salad
-Spaghetti w/Salad and bread
Wish me luck!
Sunday - Teriyaki Beef Stir Fry and Egg Rolls
Monday - Potato & Leek Soup and crusty bread
Tuesday - I'll be taste testing Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings
Wednesday - Beef & Beer Stew and cheese bread
Thursday - Texas Black Bean Soup
Friday - Chicken Marsala, Roasted Garlic Cauliflower, green beans, and rolls
Saturday - Taco Ring
So you all have really made me want to make cornbread pancakes! I think they would go great with a soup I am making tomorrow night (ham & potato). I have cornmeal but no boxes of Jiffy -- would someone mind posting the directions for the pancakes on the box? Thanks so much!
