For a richer flavor, try using a high-quality breakfast sausage with added herbs and spices. Adjust the amount of jalapeño peppers to suit your personal spice preference. For a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes before dicing. If you don't have a Cheddar-Monterey Jack blend, you can use any combination of your favorite cheeses, such as cheddar, Colby, or pepper jack. To add a touch of sweetness, consider adding a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup to the cornbread batter. This casserole is best served warm, but leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
