Picadillo & Cornbread


My mom used to make this dish when I was younger so I thought I would give it a try, turned out great! I have a recipe for a great cornbread, refer to Dec 5 2010 post.

1 green pepper, cut into 1/2" pieces
1 red pepper, cut into 1/2" pieces
1 med onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp butter (I like Earth Balance)
2 cans (15 oz) red kidney beans-do NOT drain
1 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp red pepper
1/2 c tomato sauce (small can)
1/4 c raisins

Prepare and bake cornbread, set aside.

Saute peppers, onion, garlic in butter 5-8 mins. Stir in kidney beans, cumin, red pepper, tomato sauce, and raisins. Cook 10-12 mins over med high heat.

Serve cornbread, pour sauce over each serving.
