My family is from the south (not us kids though

). Anyway, here is an old family recipe.
Beat 1 egg in a small bowl. Add 2 heaping tablespoons of cream style corn, 1/2 very fine chopped onion and 1 small chopped jalapeno pepper. Add 3 little stips of cut up colby cheese. Mix together. Add enough self-rising corn meal to make it like corn bread consistency or thinner so that you can drop a teaspoonful at a time in your fry-daddy. Cook till golden brown.
Don't laugh at the directions...I didn't make up the recipe!
