Michael helped with the corn bread and we had a great dinner! The first words out of his mouth after his first bite were, "wow that's spicy, but man is it good!" I'll take that as a compliment and add this to the list of recipes to repeat!
Now that we have tons of left overs for the week, I'll have some time to start planning for my next fall meal! For now enjoy this recipe and the beautiful fall weather that we're having here in New England!
Very cute! Glad it turned out good. I've used ground turkey more often than not. Healthier and the spices and. Effie's take over and give it a great taste. Mom
