Good For You Cornbread

Jeff and I have both been given strict instruction to lower our cholesterol. UGH! We went out Wednesday night and bought this little ditty.

This book is great and has some pretty good recipes. Maybe lowering my cholesterol won't be so bland.

Now on to the cornbread I made today:

1 cup cornmeal

1 cup flour

1/4 cup sugar

1 tsp baking soda

1 cup 1% fat free buttermilk

1 egg

1/4 cup tub margarine (trans-fat free)

1 tsp vegetable oil (to grease the pan)

Preheat oven to 350. Mix together cornmeal, flour, sugar and baking powder. In another bowl, combine buttermilk and egg. Beat lightly. Slowly add buttermilk and egg mixture to dry ingredients. Add margarine and mix for 1 minute. Bake for 20-25 minutes in an 8x8 greased baking dish. Cool.

We had this with chili in the crock pot. I might post that recipe after dinner, if it is any good.
