Description

Here’s an easy casserole to make for your family during the week. Serve with shredded lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream and salsa. Yum!

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Lean Ground Hamburger
  • 1 cup Sweet Onion, Chopped
  • 4 ounces, weight Canned, Diced Green Chilies
  • 2 teaspoons Chili Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 cup Cornmeal
  • 2 Tablespoons Sugar
  • ¾ teaspoons Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 14-½ ounces, weight Canned Creamed Corn
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • ⅓ cups Vegetable Oil
  • 2 cups Cheddar Cheese, Shredded

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 F. In a skillet over medium heat, brown hamburger. Then add the onion and green chilies and cook until tender. Stir in the chili powder, salt, and pepper.

In a large mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, sugar, salt, and baking soda. Add in milk, creamed corn, eggs, and oil.

Pour half of the corn batter into a greased 9×13 baking pan. Cover with the meat. Sprinkle with cheese. Pour the remaining corn batter over the meat and cheese. Bake for 40-45 minutes until golden brown. Serve with shredded lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, and salsa. So good!

Very good. A little sweet, so I may try a smaller can of creamed corn next time – about 100% likely there will be a next time.

NOTE: I don’t eat meat. I subbed cooked lentils and a little olive oil- may have affected the flavor a bit.
