CORN PONE PIE

Corn Pone Pie image

Except for the time to simmer this dish, it is really very easy to make! My mom used to make this. It is supposed to serve 6, but my husband and I think it only serves 3! The corn bread recipe is good all by itself, as is the Chili con Carne. This one can easily be doubled. Enjoy!
