Easy Restaurant Recipe for Cornbread
Excellent With Chili and Soup
My traditional cornbread restaurant recipe takes me back to my
childhood days with my mother making cornbread and chili.
The aromas were wonderful and the meal was just soooo gooood!
But thanks to mother, and probably her mother before her, I am
able to enjoy the same experience today, at home and at my
restaurant.
