To Make Cornbread: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter a 13x9
inch pan. Combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and

buttermilk. Add wet to dry while mixing on low with a mixer. Mix just until no
dry ingredients remain. Pour into prepared pan. Bake until top is browned and a
toothpick comes out clean, about 55 minutes. To Make Stuffing: In a small bowl

another bowl combine the minced onions, green onions, parsley, red or green
peppers, chili peppers, and garlic. Melt 1 cup butter in a large fry pan. Add,

and Tabasco. Stir and cook 5 minutes more. Crumble the cornbread into the
