Guess what I had for lunch?

I happened to see Mary's recipe this morning and immediately began putting it together. About a half hour later I was stirring the entire mixture. My wife ground up some organic corn and whipped up a batch of corn meal muffins.

I highly recommend this easy, nutritious recipe.
