Harvest Soup

Southwest Corn Bread Bake

1 can chili beans
1 can kidney beans (or ranch style beans are good too)
2 Tbsp chopped onion
1/2 tsp ground cumin (I use more because we love Cumin)
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
2 Tbsp white sugae
1 1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup plus 1 Tbsp milk
1 1/2 tasp Canola oil

In a bowl, combine beans, corn, onion and cumin. Transfer into an 8" square baking dish coated with non-stick spray. In another bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Combine milk and oil; stir into the dry ingredients until moistened.

Drop by tablsespoons over chili mixture; carefully spread over the top. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Makes 4 gnerous servings.

***You can play with this a bit - sometimes I add olives, chopped green chiles, diced jalepenos, etc. Just add them in with the bean mixture.

BBQ Meatless Loaf

1 onion, chopped
1 stick margarine or butter
8-10 slices wheat bread, cubed
1 can Vegeburger
2 cups shredded cheese
4 eggs, beaten
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp sgae

Topping:
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup hot water
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup bbq sauce

Preheat oven to 350 F. Saute onion in butter until soft; add bread and saute a bit longer. Combine other ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add bread and onions to bowl. Press into a greased 9 x 13" casserole dish.

Mix topping with generous amounts of each ingredient and spread to edges of baking dish. Bake uncovered for 45 minutes or until top is carmelized.

***I don't use onion because Rob doesn't like it. I also use about 2 Tbsp of Cavenders seasoning in place of the other seasoning. I make this dish ahead by at least 24 hours so that the topping will seep down into the casserole, adding the bbq flavor to everything. You can throw this into the oven at 125 degrees for 2-2 1/2 hours if you want to have something ready when you come home from church.
