About this Recipe
Cornbread is my absolute favorite Southern comfort food. When my sister and I are together, we often make a big batch of vegan chili and then another big batch of vegan cornbread and crumble the cornbread in the chili and mix in vegan sour cream, like a big cornbread chili sourcream soup! This might be my favorite meal in the world. Outside of the cornbread-chili-sourcream soup, cornbread is great with any Southern dish. Whether paired with greens, mashed potatoes, vegan fried oyster mushrooms, or the many other dishes in this resource, it is a side that never disappoints! Enjoy with vegan butter melted on top for some extra soul!
