2.In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, wheat flour, and salt. Mix well to combine.

3.In a small saucepan, heat the water until warm (not boiling). Remove from heat and sprinkle the yeast over the warm water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.

6.Fold in the sliced cooked sausage into the mixture.

7.Grease a baking dish with a little oil and pour the mixture into the dish, spreading it evenly.

8.Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

9.Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
