Beans w/Cornbread Topping
adapted from The Whole Foods Diabetic Cookbook
This is a hearty and filling dish. The topping isn't spongy like typical cornbread. I serve this with a side salad.
Ingredients
Bean Mixture
1 Tblsp Olive Oil
1 medium onion chopped
1/2 green pepper chopped
1 cup frozen corn (or 1 cob fresh)
2 cans pinto or red or pink beans, drained and rinsed
8 oz can tomato sauce
dash cayanne pepper
few shakes cumin
salt to taste
Topping
1 cup cornmeal
1 Tblsp sugar (I use raw)
few shakes salt
3/4 cup milk
4 tsp canola oil
Turn oven on to 375F.
Heat olive oil in skillet. Saute onion, pepper, and corn (if using fresh) for 3 to 5 minutes. Add beans, tomato sauce and spices. Let simmer for five minutes, stiring occasionally.
Put cornmeal, salt and sugar in bowl. Stir in milk and oil until batter-like.
Spoon bean mixture into casserol dish. Pour topping batter evenly over bean mixture. Put in oven, uncovered, and bake for 20 - 25 minutes. When done the top will be firm and there will be tomato sauce bubbling up in some spots.
