I found this in a quick cooking magazine and it is so good and so easy. Most tamale pies seem dry but not this one. It is cheesy and tasty!
Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 cup onion, chopped
1 (15 ounce) can stokes green chile sauce with pork, divided
1/4 cup water
1 (1 1/2 ounce) package taco seasoning
1 cup frozen corn
1 (2 1/4 ounce) can sliced black olives, drained
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
1 (8 -12 ounce) box jiffy cornbread mix
1 egg
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook beef and onion until beef is no longer pink; drain.
2. Measure 1/2 cup green chile sauce sauce; set aside.
3. Add remaining sauce to ground beef. Stir in taco seasoning and water. Bring to a boil.
4. Stir in corn and olives. Spoon into a greased deep dish pie plate or a 1.5 quart casserole dish. Sprinkle with 1 cup of cheese.
5. In a bowl, combine corn bread mix, egg and the reserved chile sauce; mix well.
6. Spoon over cheese layer.
7. Bake 400 degrees for 25 minute or until corn bread is done.
8. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. (I use extra cheese for the top).
