FRESH CORN CAKES



Fresh Corn Cakes image

Corn's always been the basis of my favorite recipes-in fact, these corn cakes were one of the first things I made for my husband. For dinner, they're nice with fresh fruit salad and ham. They're also great with breakfast sausage and orange juice. Tom works for the highway department on Mount Hood, and we live at its base. Our children are 19, 16 and 13.

OVEN BAKED SOPES W/ ZUCCHINI-CORN FILLING



Oven Baked Sopes W/ Zucchini-Corn Filling image

Got this recipe from Vegetarian Times. it says sopes are small round tartlette-like cakes made with masa harina the flour used to prepare tortillas. Instead of frying the sopes on a griddle, we've baked them for entertaining ease. Topped with zucchini-corn Filling or Pico de Gallo, they make beautiful appetizers or you can serve a trio of stuffed sopes as an entree. Zucchini corn filling is a ultraversatile filling works just as well in tacos, enchiladas and quesadillas as it does as a filling for sopes. The filling seemed to need the chili powder and I added some bell pepper. very simple flavor, and would be easy to spice up.
