Breaking out the Cold Weather Foods Muffin Tin Monday

Ah Fall.  It makes me dip into the comfort foods.  Good thing my boys seem to love soups so much.  

We had some green grapes, New Mexico style cornbread (it has green chilis, sour cream, cheddar and corn in the batter) and my Southern Style black eyed peas - for which you can find the recipe here.  They are quite healthy and economic, have lots of flavor, and the recipe makes a large amount.

If you'd like to see more ideas for kids' meals, go visit Muffin Tin Mom.

    I love corn bread with black eyed peas! I might have to make some later this week when it gets colder outside. I made veggie soup yesterday evening and we had it for dinner tonight!
