I don’t enjoy cooking so when I find a recipe that is both full of delicious ingredients and easy to make, it’s a hit with me. Our niece Megan’s Cornbread Pizza is both. Cornbread is a favorite at our house and it is the foundation of this recipe. As with all pizza, you can design your own taste combinations. This crust makes a yummy “chili” pizza as well, Top it with chunky chili and your favorite cheese (I use cheddar) and bake. It’s a fun way to use up leftover chili plus it’s fast and delish. I want to thank our niece Megan for the recipe and Angela for letting me not only share a fun recipe, but also for giving me a little bit of bragging space - I am so proud of Megan!
