After making the Creamy Tomatillo Verde Avocado Salsa in my first post, now I have to use the rest of the Herdez Tomatillo Verde Mexican Cooking Sauce because it tastes so good, it would be a shame to waste.   So I decided to make the Herdez Mexican Cornbread by Paula on Allrecipes.com.  It has become a family favorite of ours.  It goes great with chicken tortilla soup or chili.  It will probably become my go-to cornbread recipe from now on.  It is moist and the pepperjack cheese, Herdez sauce and the jalapeños add just the right amount of spiciness.

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Mix together the cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl. Stir in the Cheddar cheese, pepper Jack cheese, onion, and red bell pepper.
  • Add the milk, oil, corn, jalapeño peppers, and Mexican cooking sauce. Stir well.
  • Spray a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Immediately pour the batter baking dish.
  • Bake for about 50 minutes or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let cool at least 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

If you do not have creamed corn, add a can of corn into the food processor and process for about a minute. Then it will become thick like creamed corn and you can use that in the recipe.

Look for the Herdez Mexican Cooking sauces in the Mexican aisle of your grocery store. Ask your store manager if they do not yet carry it.  National distribution started in July 2013.

I have now tried all four varieties and they are all wonderful!

    Delicious! I was skeptical this would come out properly with so much liquid, but it came out moist on the inside with a lovely brown crust on the top. I didn’t have jalapenos or peppers, so did without and had to sub the Herdez cooking sauce for Herdez Tomatilla salsa. This is a delightful, gluten free cornbread that would go wonderfully with chili or soup… or in this case, we enjoyed with black eyed peas and collard greens!
