30 min or less active, bread, fall, gluten-free, side, summer
A "Submit Your Recipe" make-over for summer from @KerrieKelly of Sacramento, CA, this cornbread packs flavor while cutting down on sugar, fat, carbs, and cholesterol - and it's gluten-free! After replacing the white flour with a mix of rice flour and masa, then cutting down on the butter and eggs and adding milk for moisture, and I dared to omit all the cheese. The final flavor boost came from roasted corn and poblano peppers as well as chili powder. What was the nutritional transformation you ask?! Phenomenal...96% decrease in calories, 140% decrease in fat, 280% decrease in saturated fat, 45% decrease in carbs, 24% decrease in sodium, and a crazy 640% decrease in cholesterol. I'm virtually patting myself on the back right now!
