Never Eat A Boring Cornbread Recipe Again (PHOTOS)

There's a lot that we're grateful for when it comes to Southern cuisine -- and cornbread recipes are definitely one of them. We love starting our day off with grits. We're always down for fried green tomatoes. And just the mention of pimento cheese makes us hungry. But then, there's cornbread. We'd give it all up (maybe) for cornbread.

Cornbread recipes come with all types of variations -- jalapeno and cheddar to name a few -- and not one of them will let you down. Then there are the toppings (like butter and honey) which make this already perfect food even better. How do you like your cornbread? Let us know in the comments.
