HAM AND BROCCOLI CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Place 3 tablespoons butter in a 12-in. cast-iron skillet; place pan in oven until butter is melted, 3-5 minutes. Carefully tilt pan to coat bottom and sides with butter., Melt remaining butter. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, sour cream, cayenne pepper and melted butter until blended. Add muffin mixes; stir just until moistened. Fold in remaining ingredients. Pour into hot pan., Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 35-40 minutes.

CREAMED HAM AND EGGS OVER CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Prepare the pan of cornbread. While it is baking prepare the creamed eggs.
• Melt butter in a saucepan. Add flour, mixing well and cooking a couple of minutes to cook off the raw flour taste. Be sure to see note #3.
• Add the milk, whisking or stirring constantly, until sauce begins to thicken.
• Add the seasonings, ham and eggs. Keep warm in the top of a double boiler till serving time. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
• Guests serve themselves a square or wedge of cornbread, then spoon the creamed hand and eggs over.
• NOTE #1: The creamed eggs and ham are good served over toast points, also. Or, for glamour, in baked frozen patty shells.
• NOTE #2: Other meats substitute very well for the ham in this recipe: chipped beef, chicken, shrimp, sauteed kidney, etc. Even cooked vegetables can be substituted for a vegetarian meal: peas, beans, asparagus, cauliflower, broccolini ~ or try mixed veggies. A very accommodating basic recipe, you see!
• NOTE #3: You can flavor the white sauce to please your own taste buds. I like to cook a little finely chopped onion and celery in the butter before proceeding for example. A little dry mustard is a tasty addition, too.

BREAKFAST CORNBREAD CASSEROLE WITH HAM AND KALE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 2-quart oval baking dish.
• For the creamed corn: Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper, and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are soft and translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the corn and cream, and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reduces in volume and bubbles rapidly, about 15 minutes. Transfer 2 cups of the corn mixture to a food processor, puree until smooth, then stir it back into the skillet. Fold in the ham and kale. Transfer the creamed corn to the prepared baking dish; set aside. Clean the food processor bowl.
• For the cornbread topping: Pulse the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a food processor to combine. Add the butter, and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Add the cream and 1/2 cup of the Cheddar, and pulse until the batter just comes together.
• To assemble: Sprinkle the cornmeal batter over the creamed corn. (Don't worry if the corn isn't completely covered; the batter will puff and spread as it bakes.) Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar. Place the casserole on a baking sheet, and bake until the corn is bubbling and the crust is puffed and golden brown, about 35 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes. Serve with hot sauce.
