Lady Bird Johnson's Spoonbread
rec.food.recipes/Tonkcats (1999)
Serves 8

Spoon bread was a favorite dish with Lyndon Johnson's mother, which she passed on to his wife, Lady Bird. With a salad (fruit or green), and meat, it makes a perfect lunch.

3 cup milk
3 eggs
1 cup cornmeal
butter (the size of a walnut)
3 level tsp. baking powder
1 level tsp. salt

Stir cornmeal into 2 cups of milk and let mixture come to a boil, making a mush.

Remove from heat and add balance of milk and well-beaten eggs. Stir in salt, baking powder and melted butter.

Bake in 2 quart greased casserole for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
