A great vegetarian recipe from Homemakers' Magazine. A bean, corn and salsa mixture on a polentalike base. The chipotles (smoked jalapeno peppers) can be quite hot! I often just add a dab of the peppers when cooking for folks who are not keen on spicy food. Love the smokey flavour. EDITED:Feb.08...We really enjoy this served with puppitypup's Mexican Night Salad (#188160) Ingredients:
2 cups vegetable stock |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup yellow cornmeal |
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided |
1 (19 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed |
1 cup salsa (mild, medium or hot) |
1 cup kernel corn, frozen, thawed or 1 cup canned corn, drained |
2 chipotle chiles in adobo, diced |
1 teaspoon chili powder |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350. 2. Lightly oil an 11 x 7-inch (2 L) baking dish. 3. Bring stock and salt to a boil. 4. Slowly whisk in cornmeal until mixture thickens. 5. Bring to boil. 6.
