Jalapeno Cheddar Skillet Cornbread


wow!  this feels bizarre, it's been almost 3 months since i sat down to write my last blog post.  how did that happen?
earlier this week, mr. handsome and i talked about some of the goals we want to achieve before the year is though.  mine include mastering a push up, going on at least 3 hikes, and blogging weekly again.  so here goes nothing....feel free to also hold me accountable, or come on a hike with me!


so to kick off this new chapter, i'm making jalapeño cheddar cornbread as a side dish.  i'm not sure if it was all the snow this past weekend, but yesterday i woke up craving home cooked chili, which is really just an excuse for me to eat as much cornbread as possible.  if it had to snow, at least it produced this delicious crispy, cheesy, spicy skillet cornbread.

cheers.xo.
