Cheesy and delicious, I love this warm, topped with creamed cheese and salsa. This is "corn bread" is baked in a loaf tin and slices beautifully. Loaded with grated veggies and cheese this is perfect with casserole, part of a BBQ or to accompany a Mexican meal. I normally double, make two and freeze one. Freeze for up to 12 weeks.
