I wanted to make some corn bread to go with dinner tonight. Since I don't have all of my kitchen gear and recipe books, I decided to just get a box of Jiffy corn muffin mix. I decided to change it up a bit so I crumbled a couple slices of bacon up into it. I put some bacon grease in the bottom of the pan and swirled it up the sides. Last minute I decided to sprinkle some brown sugar on top right before I put it in the oven. I was hoping that it would turn out good and it did! My husband calls it corn bread on crack!
So, here is the "recipe":
1 box of jiffy corn muffin mix, plus ingredients listed on box to make it
1-2 slices of bacon, crumbled
Bacon grease to cover the bottom
Brown sugar sprinkled on top
Bake @ 400 for 20-25 minutes.

must haves
It's been a while. I've had a LONG trip, and I am finally in AZ. Moving helped me to appreciate what I have. We are currently in a rental until our house is ready. It came furnished and all our stuff is in the garage. All my kitchen stuff is in boxes. I don't plan on unpacking until we get settled.
Cooking here is a little bit of a challenge. The other day I planned on making guacamole, I had all the ingredients and then I realized that I didn't have a garlic press.
So my must have this time is the stuff in your kitchen! I feel a little handicapped not having my own pots, dishes, utensils and tools. It's so much easier to cook when you know you have what you need.
