| Dutch oven with chicken. |
|
Last Friday, the 19th, my family and I
had a quiet outdoor cooking evening together. We used our Dutch ovens
and made a cornbread and chicken. The chicken was delicious as well
as the cornbread, but it was the first time we had the chicken
because Mom and Dad made up the recipe. However, we have made the
cornbread multiple times.

The cornbread is a recipe called “Utah
Moist Supreme Cornbread” that we modified a bit. As the title
states, it is extremely moist. You almost don't need any butter or
honey and it actually doesn't take that long to cook. Also, the
cornbread mix is so large that you cut the dry ingredients in half
and then add the rest of the ingredients (obviously cutting the
amount of wet ingredients in half also) saving the other dry
ingredients for another batch.
It is so special to have a break from
our constant activities to enjoy family time. I think it is important
to set aside time to grow in our relationship as a family and focus
on each other. Although the food is good, the more important part of
that night is family. I think God has given us family to love,
respect, and to hold each other up. We need to honor that by doing
just that. Thank you, God, for family.

Can I have the recipe for the cornbread??? Our family loves cornbread, and this one sounds really good, it being moist and all!!! We probably wouldn't have to cut it in half though, because there's 10 kids in our family, so it would most likely get all eaten...lol :)
