This is a perfect meal for any weeknight! Add to it that the temperatures have stayed in the 50's today! What better to warm the heart and soul than a big bowl of stew and cornbread on the side! The Beef Barley Stew cooked in the crockpot all day. (Don't you just love a crockpot!) The Pumpkin Cornbread made the house smell so yummy! It was wonderful to walk in the door this evening to such pleasing aromas!
What a satisfying meal it was! The stew was fabulous - not to mention full of vegetables. I loved that my 2 year old ate TWO bowl fulls, all those good veggies making him stronger! And the Pumpkin Cornbread was really good. I was unsure how it was going to be - I typically think of Pumpkin as Pie. But the cornbread had great texture, very much like a sweet Corn Muffin with a hint of Pumpkin taste to it. Both dishes are a Winner!
Oh wow, I just made this cornbread this week too and absolutely loved it. It's definitely on my favorites list. By the way, I'm holding a CSN giveaway on my blog and you're welcome to enter. http://sweet-as-sugar-cookies.blogspot.com/2010/11/45-csn-giveaway.html
