1 heaping c. yellow cornmeal
2 tbsp. flour
2 eggs
2 tbsp. oil
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 lb. sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 c. buttermilk
1/2 c. water
1 lg. can cream style corn
1 lb. hamburger or ground chuck
2 jalapeno peppers, chopped
1 c. green onions, chopped

Brown meat just till red is out; drain and set aside. Grate cheese, chop peppers and onions separately. Mix first 8 ingredients as for cornbread. Stir in corn. Pour 1/2 of batter into greased and heated 7 x 13 x 2 inch baking dish. Spread meat over batter. Spread peppers evenly over meat; then the onions and then the cheese. Spread other half of batter on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 to 60 minutes until real brown. Cool slightly before cutting. With a tossed salad and lime sherbet, this makes an excellent meal.
