Mirj, a very yummy recipe indeed. DH and I loved it. I made it just like you posted. It was easy, and came out of the oven when the rest of the dinner was done. I will be making this one again. Thanks.

Mirj - Thanks for a great and easy recipe! My 2 1/2 year old twins loved it as did the rest of the family. I loved that it can be a one dish meal as well. I followed the recipe exactly except I had to cook a little longer to get the cornbread topping browned the way we like it. We will definitely be having this again.
