traditional Southern corn bread with vegetarian "cracklin's"64

Traditional Southern Corn Bread Recipe -- Vegetarian

This is traditional Southern corn bread, but with a vegetarian twist (normally, bacon and bacon grease are used). This is not the more common sweet cake-like cornbread, but instead, as my husband puts it, "substantial, sweet and nutty with the flavor of the corn but with an earthy undercurrent, and having a rustic, heavy-crumbed feel in the mouth." It is a wonderful side dish that will fill out any meal.

corn pudding served with chicken, greens, and potato salad66

Corn Pudding Recipe Using Corn Bread

Corn pudding is a delicious dish to serve in the colder months as a side to dinner or lunch. This corn pudding is a little closer to the consistency of a quiche than traditional "pudding," and it is more bread-like than many corn pudding recipes because it includes pre-made Southern cornbread. This is a great way to use up any leftover cornbread you have when it starts going stale.
