Join the discussionWOW! I made the Southwestern Skillet with Cornbread and Taco Seasoning this weekend and tonight served it for dinner. My husband and I loved it! I wouldn’t change a thing. Thanks!
Does anyone know where I can find the recipe for the Quick and Easy Cornbread (or another good recipe, preferably one that uses Greek yogurt)? The link brings me back to the Southwest Skillet recipe, and I can’t find anything in the recipe search. Thanks!
Thanks for mentioning the link with issues. We’ll look into that asap. In the meantime here’s where you can find the cornbread recipe: http://harmonioushomestead.com…. For the “1 cup milk or 1 1/4 cup cultured buttermilk” you could substitute a mixture of 1/2 of milk and 3/4 cup greek yogurt or you could give this cornbread recipe a try http://adashofsoul.com/2013/07….
