3/4 c Cornmeal

3/4 c Skim milk

2 t Baking powder

1 ds Salt

2 t Sugar

1 ds Chili pepper

1 Egg white

1/2 c Corn kernels

Saute onions & pepper in a little vegetable stock & water till tender (about 8 mins). Add tomatoes, beans, salsa & corn. Add the spices and simmer while you get the topping ready. {Original recipe called for 3 or 4 tablespoons of oil and 1 whole egg in the batter. I increased the milk slightly, added about 1/2 more teaspoon of baking powder and used just the egg white} Sift together dry ingredients. Beat egg white & milk. Stir into flour & cornmeal mixture – don’t overmix. Fold in the corn kernels, and spread batter over bean mixture and bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes. I serve this with plain yogurt {reduced fat, can’t get fatfree around my neck of the woods} & extra salsa on the side. Posted by Janet Hatch <JANET.HATCH@ACADIAU.CA>to the Fatfree Dig.
