Mexican Cornbread

Here's a recipe my mom made for our family when we were growing up. It comes from my Uncle Steve. Enjoy!

1 pound lean hamburger
1 large onion, chopped
2 cans green chili's
1 cup cornmeal
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon soda
1 cups milk
1 can creamed corn
2 eggs
1/3 cup oil
2 cups cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In skillet, brown hamburger. Add onion and green chili's and cook until tender. In large mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, salt, soda, milk, creamed corn, eggs, and oil. Pour half corn batter into a 9x13 baking pan. Cover with meat. Sprinkle with cheese. Pour remaining corn batter over meat and cheese. Bake for 30-40 minutes until golden brown. Serve with shredded lettuce, sour cream, and Homemade Salsa. So good!
