I'm in the Kitchen

Welcome to Madre's Kitchen! I am so glad you visited my blog about cooking and all things healthy. I am a cook, not a chef. One of my hearts desires is to hit the road when disaster strikes and feed people a home cooked meal. First, however, I need a portable kitchen! Home cooked relief can bring healing on many levels. Since my breast cancer, food awareness has helped me to discover and apply a more healthy lifestyle for myself. It has taught me to promote better healing and health through treatments. I will be sharing that information here too. Thank you for visiting and enjoy!

My Cornbread Recipe thanks to Elvia

Just in time for Thanksgiving here is my cornbread recipe.  Sorry no pictures this time but  will have more in future posts.  There would actually be mutiny if did not make this cornbread.  It is like cake it is so sweet and good.  Not your everyday run of the mill cornbread. Thanks to Elvia Flores who graced me with the recipe it has been an all time favorite in our family.  Hopefully it will be to yours as well.
Recipe:
2 c. corn meal
1 c. corn oil
1 can sweetened condensed milk
2 eggs
2 cans cream style corn
Preheat oven 400 degrees
Mix all ingredients together
Pour into 13x9 pan
Bake for about 40 mins, check around 30 mins as all ovens are different and cook until golden brown around edges and top.
Let cool 15 minutes, cut into cubes and serve......you get the first bite cause the first square is always the hardest to get out of the pan.....
Refigerate, preheat and serve with leftovers or with chili the next day.....yummy.
