Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
2 cups frozen corn, thawed
1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1-1/2 cups fat-free milk
1 cup cornmeal
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies, drained
1 can (2-1/2 ounces) sliced ripe olives, drained
2 egg whites, lightly beaten
1 envelope reduced-sodium taco seasoning
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
1 cup salsa
Directions:
1. In a large nonstick skillet, cook beef and jalapeno over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the corn, tomatoes, milk, cornmeal, chilies, olives, egg whites and taco seasoning until blended.
2. Transfer to a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 40 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting. Serve with salsa. Yield: 8 servings.
