Steps:
- For the filling: Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
- In a bowl, toss the poblano peppers with the canola oil. Place on the grill along with the scallions and corn and cook, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are nicely charred.
- Immediately place the peppers in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let sit for 10 minutes to sweat and soften. Chop the charred scallions and put them into a large bowl. Cut the corn kernels off the ear and add to the bowl. Peel the skins off the peppers, finely chop and then add them to the corn and scallions. Stir in the goat cheese and Parmesan.
- Heat a large saute pan on the grill, add the chorizo and cook until the oils are released and the chorizo is slightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the chorizo to the poblano-cheese mixture and gently fold together. Set aside until ready to use.
- For the arepas: Combine the masa flour and salt in a large bowl. Pour in 2 1/2 cups hot water and, using a wooden spoon, stir to combine. Add in the melted butter, cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Divide the dough into 12 small balls. Place each ball in between two pieces of plastic wrap and flatten using a heavy-bottomed skillet or tortilla press to about 3 1/2 inches in diameter and 1/4 inch thick.
- Heat the canola oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Fry the arepas until lightly browned--they should have a nice crust on the outside but still be soft inside--about 5 minutes per side.
- Using a sharp knife, slice the arepas in half, similar to an English muffin. Stuff 1 to 2 teaspoons of the filling inside each. Garnish with some chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice.
CHEESE-STUFFED AREPAS
Who knew that arepas were so simple? These delicious corn cakes take no time to make, and are infinitely adaptable. Experiment with toppings like fried eggs, guacamole and Cotija -- a dry and crumbly Mexican cheese.

Steps:
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
- Stir together 2 1/2 cups lukewarm water and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a large bowl. Gradually add the corn meal into the water, using your fingers to stir and combine, until a soft and moist dough forms.
- Divide the dough into 8 golf ball-size balls and pat each into a patty about 5-inches wide and 1/4-inch-thick.
- Put a cube of mozzarella in the center of each patty. Fold the dough over the cheese, making sure the cheese is completely covered and sealed. Pat it back down until 3-inches wide and 1/2-inch-thick (see Cook's Note).
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat until shimmering. Working in batches, cook the corn patties, until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side (making sure the oil is hot for each batch). Transfer to a cooling rack set on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until the edges are crisp and golden, about 10 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook the onions until soft, 5-7 minutes. Add the ground beef and chorizo and cook until no longer pink. Add the spices and cook for another minute.
- Add the tomatoes, chipotles and adobo sauce and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
- Add the corn, black beans, parsley/cilantro and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
- To make the cornbread:
- Combine the cornmeal and milk in a large mixing bowl and let sit for at least 20 minutes while you're preparing the meat filling.
- In another bowl, combine all the dry ingredients. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and beat just until combined, leaving some lumps. Add the oil and eggs and beat just until combined. Be careful not to overmix or the cornbread will be dry and dense.
- Pour half of the batter into a greased 9X13 inch baking dish. Spoon the filling evenly over the batter then top with the remaining batter.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, top with the Cheddar cheese, and bake for another 2 minutes until the cheese is melted.
- Let the cornbread cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting into squares.
DELUXE CORNBREAD STUFFING
When my husband and I were newlyweds and far from family, we invited friends over for a traditional Thanksgiving feast. I searched for stuffing recipes and combined the best aspects of several to create this one. Everyone liked it, and I still make it for holidays. -Pamela Rickman, Valdosta, Georgia

HOMEMADE AREPAS
It was at a New York City hole-in-the-wall eatery where I first fell in love with a stuffed white corn cake. Halfway through my first arepa, one stuffed with black beans, beef, plantains, and salty cheese, I vowed to learn how to make these at home. It's a truly magnificent delivery system for any number of your favorite fillings. I went with some spicy pork and avocado, but I made a version a few days later stuffed with caramelized plantains and salty goat feta.

You can make this easy stuffing up to four hours ahead; just cover and refrigerate until it's time to bake (just add about ten minutes to the baking time). Add toasted pecan pieces, dried sweet cranberries, or golden raisins for a twist!
