The watermelon/tomato salad was good only one slight problem. 5 cups of watermelon and 5 cups of tomatoes is a metric buttload of salad. That's a whole lot of fruity goodness there. We gave a way a bunch of it to some friends and we still ate our fill of it. :)

sure...

Preheat your oven to 350 F
Caramellize sliced onions (I used 1 small onion or half of a large onion) on a cast iron skillet-- set on med heat, add enough butter to cover, and cook onions until they brown and smell nice.

mix the following dry ingredients:
3/4 C flour
3/4 C cornmeal
1/4 C sugar
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda

Add:
2 tsp jalapeno, minced and seeded
1/2 C caramellized onions (keep the skillet dirty-- you'll need it)

Melt 1/4 cup butter in the same skillet and cool it
In a different bowl whisk:
1 1/4 C buttermilk (or 1 cup milk and 2 tsp cider vinegar, set aside for about 10 mins until it curdles)
2 eggs
1/4 C melted, cooled butter

Add the wet ingredients to dry ingredients, stir well, dump back into now well-greased skillet. Put skillet in oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool completely (it will be moist).
