Beef Tamale Pie

Use a pie pan or an 8x8" casserole for this dish.

Ingredients

1 lb. ground beef
1 envelope taco seasoning mix (try a jalepeno & onion mix)
1 (15oz) can black beans
1 (11oz) southwestern-style corn (corn, onion, bell peppers)
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup or so Mexican cheese blend
Sour cream, if desired
Crust ingredients:
1 (8.5oz) box Jiffy corn muffin mix
3/4 cup sour cream


Directions

Preheat oven to 400.

Brown ground beef, drain, and return to skillet. Stir in taco seasoning mix, black beans, corn, and water. Simmer about 5 minutes, stirring ocassionally.

While the above is simmering, mix the crust ingredients until moistened. Spread about half the mix lightly across the bottom of the baking dish and up the sides - it's fine that it doesn't completely coat the dish.

Pour the meat mixture into the baking dish, and spread the rest of the corn muffin batter around the outer edge of the dish. Top with cheese now, or when it's done baking.

Bake 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Serve with sour cream if desired.
