Directions:Preheat the broiler.
Toss the cauliflower, poblano pepper, and scallions with the vegetable oil, chili powder, cumin, and 1/2 tsp salt on a rimmed baking sheet; spread in a single layer.
Broil until the vegetables are browned around the edges, 7-10 minutes.
While veggies are cooking, make the cornbread.
Whisk the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, brown sugar, and 3/4 tsp salt in a medium bowl.
Work the butter into the cornmeal mixture with your fingers until crumbly.
Stir in the buttermilk and 1/3 cup cheese with a fork until combined.
Remove the baking sheet from the broiler and preheat the oven to 475 degrees.
Add the beans and their liquid, tomato sauce, corn, vegetable broth, and 1/2 tsp salt to the roasted vegetables and gently stir.
Spoon the biscuit dough on top in 12 mounds, about 1 1/2 inches apart. Sprinkle the biscuits with the remaining 1/3 cup cheese.
Bake until the chili starts bubbling and the biscuits are golden and cooked through, 25-30 minutes.
Sprinkle with scallions.
Preparation 45 minutes. Serves 6 |

Notes: John's a big chili fan but Sharon doesn't care for beef so we tried this compromise and fell in love with it.
We go a little heavier on the chili powder for an extra kick.
A really tasty alternative to traditional chili.
Kindness is more than deeds. It is an attitude, an expression, a look, a touch. It is anything that lifts a person up. ~ Plato
