    Loved your granny's recipe--very moist and delicious bread! I used only one jalapeno which was very mild and just right for my family. Went very well with my Chile Con Carne With Red Beans, recipe # 117931! Made for Flour Power in the Photos Forum, April 2008-- a definite keeper! Thanks ratherbeswimmin'!

    This was great and then I realized I forgot the cheese so it must be even better if made correctly! I'll try again and update, it was a delicious goof on my part though.

    The first time I made this I made it in the traditional cast iron frying pan. It was wonderful. For lunch today I baked Your Los Rio Stew (# 39788) and since I had the oven hot I mixed a batch and baked it in a cast iron bread stick pan. It was even better, if that's possible. It crusts perfectly and the core of the corn sticks were moist, tender, and have a very sassy flavor. Thanx!
