This is a recipe that my whole family loves. Goes well with lentils, beans, and just about any soup. Make extra because there won’t be leftovers!

Great Basic ...make it flavorful for game day
This is great if you plan on topping it w/jam, etc. Substitute creamed corn for half the milk and oil. Add fresh chopped cilantro, part can of green chiles to your level of taste. Top with grated sharp chedar while still warm. This takes it from basic to flavorful.
