Mexican Spoon Bread

Ingredients

-(optional) Combine the cream style corn, the milk, melted butter or fat, and the eggs in a large bowl. Blend thoroughly. Stir together the cornmeal, soda and salt to blend, and then stir into the liquid mixture, blending thoroughly. Pour half the batter into a buttered 23 cm square pan. Spread with the grated cheese, and the onion if used. Cover with the remaining batter, and if desired, sprinkle with more cheese and onion. Bake in a 400 oven for 45 minutes, or until browned and done. Cool slightly before cutting.
