Tamale Pie


This is a super quick yummy winter dish! It's become one of our staple meals with all the cold weather!! Enjoy:)

Filling:

1 1/2 lbs. ground beef
1/2 t chili powder
1/2 t ground cumin
1/4 t salt
1/2 bell pepper, chopped
16 oz. salsa

Brown ground beef. Drain and return to skillet. Add the rest of filling ingredients and keep warm while you make the crust.


Crust:
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup yellow corn meal
1/4-1/3 cup sugar
1 T baking powder
1/2 t salt
1 1/4 cup milk
2 eggs
1/4 cup oil
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese


To make the crust combine all dry ingredients in a medium size bowl. Then add milk, eggs and oil. Stir until combined, then fold in cheese.

Put half of the crust in the bottom of a pie or bundt pan. Place filling on crust and top with remaining crust. Bake in a 375' oven for 35-40 minutes, until top is golden brown. Serve with sour cream.
