This cheesy, kicked-up beef and corn casserole is topped with cornbread to make a hearty dish that the whole family will enjoy!
Step 1
Heat the oven to 375°F. Cook the beef in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat until it's well browned, stirring often to separate meat. Pour off any fat.
Step 2
Stir the corn with its liquid, picante sauce and cheese in the skillet. Spoon the beef mixture into a 2-quart shallow baking dish. Prepare the corn muffin mix according to the package directions. Using 2 spoons, drop the batter evenly on top of the beef mixture.
Step 3
Bake for 25 minutes or until the corn muffin topping is golden brown.

Has anyone tried this with shredded chicken?
So Easy Tamale Pie
I only did half at a time and it was perfect as written. Now that I am cooking for two everything spreads out much longer for filling dinners.
Perfect for a winter warming meal
This is a great, SIMPLE recipe that is sure to be a crowd pleaser. I used 1 can of whole kernel corn (drained), instead of creamed corn, and I added 1 can of drained sliced black olives, 1 can of drained black beans, 1/2 of a chopped onion , and 1/2 packet of taco seasoning to the beef. I also used 2 corn muffin mixes instead of 1. It was wonderful!
Easy & Delicious w/a simple change
My family loved this recipe. I took the advice of some of the reviews and added a half packet of taco seasoning, which made all the difference in the world. I didn't care for the corn bread on top because it was too sweet for me. My family loved it though. I will try this recipe again with cornmeal on top.
Great weeknight meal option
Good, but definitely needs a little added seasoning. Super easy to make and my family enjoyed it. I made it in a 10-inch cast iron skillet and probable should have doubled the recipe because the "filling" was a little thin.
