Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb cornbread mix plus the ingredients required for the mix
  • 1 medium onion
  • 1 medium red bell pepper
  • 1 large jalapeno
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 10.5 oz black beans drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 lb andouille sausage chopped
  • olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • fresh cilantro
  • sour cream
  • honey
  • green onions

Instructions
 

  • Dice the onion and the peppers and then add to a skillet that has already been drizzled with olive oil. Lightly salt and pepper to season the vegetables.
  • Saute until the onion and peppers begin to brown slightly. Remove from the skillet and pour it into a large mixing bowl.
  • Add more olive oil into the skillet and saute the andouille sausage until it begins to brown. While the sausage is cooking, in the same large mixing bowl, pour in the corn and the rinsed black beans.
  • In a seperate mixing bowl, make the cornbread according to the directions on the package. Add the sausage into the large bowl when slightly browned.
  • Pour in the cornbread mix into the large mixing bowl, then add in 1½ cups of the cheddar cheese and stir to combine. Pour into an already greased 9x13 inch pan and spread until the ingredients are even over the pan.
  • Bake at 375°F for 35-40 minutes, or until a knife pressed into the center comes out clean. Serve immediately, topped with fresh cilantro. Extra toppings such as avocados, sour cream, honey, and green onions go extremely well with this dish.
