Easy Tamale Pie

Author: kevin

This is a quick and easy meal for lunch or dinner. I like to use ground turkey instead of ground beef occasionally and this works well. I also use the Jiffy Corm Muffin mix to spread over the top of the meat and bean mixture.

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 tbsp chili seasoning
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1-8oz can tomato sauce
  • 1 can kidney beans
  • 1 pkg. “JIFFY” Corn Muffin Mix
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1-8oz can whole kernel corn
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 3 green onions, chopped

Preheat oven to 350˚.

Brown the ground turkey with the onions. Next add the chili, cumin, tomato sauce and beans. Combine thoroughly and cook for 5 mintues on low. Next, pour into a 2 quart casserole.

In a mixing bowl add the corn muffin mix, egg, milk. Mix thoroughly and then add the corn kernels. Stir to incorporate. Spread the muffin mixture over the top of the chili mixture. Bake fo r40 minutes until the center is firm to the touch.  Next sprinkle the cheddar cheese on top and bake for 5 more minutes. Remove from oven, top with chopped green onions and serve.
