Old-Fashioned Dixie Cornbread – A Southern Delight!

Cornbread usually needs to be slathered with butter and honey if eaten alone, but this recipe gives it a chance to shine on its own. I love to put a slice of this Dixie cornbread in my chili. Oh, is it EVER good! I could eat cornbread and chili for every meal. I like to top it all off with a sprinkle of cheese and some salsa. Now, that’s the stuff right there, people!
