The first time I tried this recipe it was too watery, runny.
the second time I tried it I used all the ingredients. I added also 1/3 cup of red bell pepper and 4 cups of cornbread and placed into a 9 by 13 baking pan it was wonderful and a hit at my party
Stephanie
I am glad it worked out for you the 2nd time.

This recipe looks so good I can’t wait to try it! I will need to omit the jalapenos for my family.
