My family had mixed responses: The kids didn't like it (three of them). My sister liked it and me and my dad thought it was lacking something. It is a good meal when you are broke or short on time but the chili part needs some work. It was just so "canned." This whole idea of putting the cornbread in the chili then covering it to bake was a great idea. I think I'll make my own chili next time though.

I made this recipe for the first time for company. It was so good!! I softened an onion in the skillet before I added the beans. Every one loved it!

I'm not a good cook, but even I can make this easy dish. Tastes great and even my little kids like it.
