County Fair since she was a small child. This recipe for Spam

Muffins earned her first place.

SPAM MUFFINS

1 can Spam (diced)

1 box of corn muffin mix

2 eggs (slightly beaten)

½ can cream corn

½ can of whole corn (don’t drain)

4 ounces sour cream

¼ cup butter (chunks)

Garnish:

shredded cheese (any kind to taste – I use cheddar)

jalapenos (one sliver for each muffin)

Mix together all ingredients and fill muffin tins half full. Garnish with

cheese and jalapenos to taste. Bake at 375 degrees for approximately 15 minutes or until golden brown.
