Blue Cornmeal Bread

"Coyotes Deli & Grill in Banff makes the most amazing blue corn bread," writes Donna Sanche of Toronto, Ontario. "My husband and I had dinner there not long ago, and enjoyed the entire meal -- but the corn bread was definitely the highlight. I've told all of my friends about it, and now I'd like to make it for them."
