This spoon bread is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

This spoon bread is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I often add chopped carrots, celery, or onions.

This spoon bread is a great make-ahead dish. I often make it the night before and then reheat it in the oven before serving.

I'm not a big fan of cornbread, but I really enjoyed this spoon bread. It was light and fluffy, with a great flavor.

I didn't have any cornmeal, so I used all-purpose flour instead. The spoon bread still turned out great!

This spoon bread was a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some cheese or herbs next time.
