For a richer flavor, consider using freshly ground cornbread made with butter or bacon fat. Adjust the amount of jalapenos to your desired level of spiciness. For a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes completely. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese. Cheddar, Monterey Jack, or even a smoked Gouda would all be delicious. A simple tomato glaze can be added during the last 15 minutes of baking for extra flavor and visual appeal.
