EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

The topping on this spicy casserole bakes up light and tender. If you like a heavy, denser-style cornbread, leave out the baking powder in the topping.

Named for the black "eye" on its inner curve, these beans are thought to have been brought to the South during the time of slavery. You'll find them fresh, dried and canned.

It's quick, easy and with hardly any left overs. We've made it everything and everyone and it's always at hit. Instead of ground beef, we use ground turkey and it's just as good as the original.
