    Yummy recipe. I doubled the salsa and added a handful of frozen corn to make it pretty. Very good.

    This was ok (correct texture, but not wonderful. It was pretty bland, and you could not taste the salsa or cheese. Also, it was a bit dry for our liking. Next time, I would add more butter, jalapenos, and increase the amount of cheese. Will probably keep looking for a better cornbread recipe, unfortunately!

    Since there was only 4 of us for dinner, I cut this recipe in half, but still used 1/4 cup of the tomatillo salsa. It was the best cornbread we ever ate! It will be the only cornbread I ever make from now on!

    Love this cornbread, although I replace the 1/4 cup of tomatillo with a 1/4 cup of honey. I find that it's usually done within 15 minutes, not 30--so watch it carefully in your oven! Comes out very moist and flavorful--it's always a hit!

    This is the best and easiest recipe for cornbread that I have ever made and I have tried many. I made it for Cinco De Mayo and everyone loved it. Since the tomatillo salsa and the cayenne don't give it much heat, I stirred about 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes into the batter and it added just the right amount of kick to the taste.

    I made this today to go along with some chili I served for friends on Football Sunday. It went along well with chili. I found the recipe very easy to follow and I was quite satisfied with the result. In hindsight I would have used more of the tomatillo sauce and maybe some minced jalapenos to give it some kick.

    One thing I found odd from the recipe is that I took it out 14 mins early and it was just fine! I don't know if it's my oven, but it was firm and golden brown after just 16 mins.

    This is the best corn bread I have ever had or made - I added half a jalapeno (seeds and all just because I like spicy - I cut the recipe in half because it makes a lot. Moist and delicious.

    Have made this a number of times in the last year and it has become our favorite. Not difficult with a very consistant outcome. would not at all call this spicy or hot. I would recommend a "hot" tomatillo salsa if you want to get the flavor enhanced toward the salsa with a little kick. I made it once without the suger (operator error and it was fine. No one missed it though the suger does add a hint of sweetness if that is what you are used to in conrbread

    Good. Next time will add more sugar to make it sweeter, and jalapenos for more heat.

    Excellent, I made these for a party with the chili. The only difference is that I made them into mini-muffins that were adorable and I've also made them with packaged mix before.
