Recipe Introduction
This is a very tasty, comfort-food type of dish. I really love the
cornbread topping. Instead of making the cornbread from scratch, if you
are rushed, you could use the prepared package mixes, like Jiffy. I made
the cornbread as muffins, let cool, and then crumbled. I had a couple
muffins leftover that way, that I can use for another meal. I added
carrots to the recipe, about 1/2c, diced, and it was a good addition.
