These Southwestern inspired squares are delicious by themselves, of coursebut the sauce gives them an extra zing of zesty flavor, and I never make this recipe without it!Edith Lawler, Clinton, Missouri Ingredients:

1 garlic clove, minced |
1/4 cup ketchup |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 package (8-1/2 ounces) corn bread/muffin mix |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese |
tangy tomato sauce: |
2 tablespoons cold water |
2 teaspoons cornstarch |
1 can (8 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained |
1/4 teaspoon chili powder |
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1 teaspoon sugar |
2 tablespoons chopped chili peppers |

1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
Directions:
