Nothing compliments a bowl of chili more than cornbread, right? Yesterday, I made 5 batches of chili for some of my neighbors. Since I made an extra batch for my family, I decided to make some cornbread muffins to go with it.
As I was looking around my pantry, I found a few extra cans of green chilies. Since typically I add jalapenos and then my kids all claim, “their mouth is on fire”, I knew that the green chilies would be a safer choice. Sure enough, all three of my kids ate their cornbread, and I didn’t hear anyone say they were too spicy. Win!!

These muffins freeze great too, so make a batch and freeze the leftover muffins for another night! If you prefer to cut pieces of cornbread rather than have muffins, you can make this in a greased 8×8 baking pan.

What other ingredients can I add to this recipe? You can add 1 cup of corn, 1 cup of cheddar cheese, jalapeno slices, bacon bits, sweet peppers, and more!
How do I freeze these? Allow the muffins to fully cool down from oven and store in an airtight container/bag. Place in freeze for up to 3 months.
How do I reheat these? Simply allow to thaw out fully and place desired number of muffins into microwave for about 30 seconds.
