This was really good, only it needed some adjustments and it would be nice if the original author would clarify some stuff in the recipe. First off, I tried it AS written, 1 1/2 cups of cornmeal + 2 1/4 tsp baking powder + 1 tsp salt, plus the wet ingredients. I ended up using a full 14oz can of corn and I still didn't have enough batter. I added a 1/2 cup of milk and another 1/2 cup of corn meal and 1/2 tsp of baking powder and that gave me enough batter for the recipe. I also sauteed the onion and bell pepper with the sausage and mixed a drained can of chopped chilis into the batter. In the end it turned out REALLY yummy, but it needed the extra batter ingredients. It would be nice to know if the self rising corn meal needs to be prepared as per the box directions or not, as I used this recipe b/c I was out of the Jiffy stuff and only had regular cornmeal.

Awesome recipe. I followed another reviewer's lead and did this all on the stove. I didn't have the dry mustard powder and I added a tsp of Worcestershire sauce. I sprinkled both sides of the chops with the sugar, pepper and salt before I seared them. Then I seared them quickly on both sides, reduced the heat to low and covered them with the rest of the sugar, salt and pepper mixed with the juice and tomato sauce and let them simmer until done. YUMMMO!

Hmm! I made this for breakfast this morning. I made a few changes and it still turned out great (I plan on buying the correct ingredients and making a full batch to freeze). First off I made 1/4 batch, because it's just me. Second, I didn't have cottage cheese so I used plain yogurt and shredded parmesean (recipe called for 1/2 cup so I used 1/2 cup of each). Then I cubed up some feta cheese and threw that in too. I also don't like spicy, so instead of the peppers I used San Francisco mixed veggies (green beans, peppers, onions, broccoli). Finally I used whole wheat flour and I didn't have muffin tins so I made it as a loaf. It turned out great, fluffy and delicious, I can't wait to try it with cottage cheese!
