Forget the packaged stuff that’s about as dry as the box it came in, instead make your own cornbread. Quick and Easy Homemade Cornbread, as the name would suggest, is very simple to make and the results surpass any store-bought stuff. This is best eaten warm with a smear of butter and a drizzle of honey; if you’re into the honey drizzle on your cornbread.

Don’t just serve cornbread with chili, it’s great with soups, stews and roasts too. Pre made food has its place and I get that it’s convenient but the time it takes to throw a packet cornbread together versus the time it takes to make Quick and Easy Homemade Cornbread are so comparable, why would you even bother with the boxed stuff? Just saying. Love and social-distancing hugs, Lovoni xo
