Corn Bread or Johnny Cake, as my Grandmother used to call it, is one of my favorite things. It’s so darn good and incredibly versatile. You can eat it warm as a dessert with maple syrup or as an accompaniment to tacos or any Mexican style dish.<\/p>\n

It’s also great just plain or with butter for a snack or accompanying any meal. Try it in the lunch box for a change with an apple and a couple slices of your favorite cheese.<\/p>\n
