Combine first 5 ingredients; cook over medium heat until
thickened, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Beat eggs
at medium speed of an electric mixer until thick and lemon
colored. Gradually stir about one-fourth of hot mixture
into eggs; add to remaining hot mixture, stirring
constantly. Stir in Cheddar cheese. Pour into a lightly
greased 1-1/2-quart casserole. Bake at 350 degrees for 35
minutes or until a knife inserted in center comes out
clean. Yield: 6 servings.
NOTES : At first taste. you might confuse spoonbread with a
grits casserole. The texture is similar, but spoonbread is
made from cornmeal instead of grits.
