Been eating this since i was a kid..a family fav

Cornbread Pie

1 lb ground beef ( can make with 1 1/2 lbs too)
1 lrge onion chopped
1 can tomato soup
2 cups water
1 t salt
¾ t pepper
3 Tbs chili powder
½ cup green pepper ( I use poblano)
1 can whole kernal corn (drained) or a couple of handfulls of frozen

Brown beef and onion in skillet, drain fat. Add the rest of the ingredients, mix well and simmer for 15 minutes.

Cornbread Topping (can use a cornbread mix instead, like Corn Kits) (Jiffy is too sweet.)

¾ cup corn meal
1 Tbs sugar
1 Tbs flour
½ salt
1½ t baking powder

mix together well then add:

1 beaten egg
½ cup milk
1 Tbs oil


stir together lightly, dont over-beat.
Cover meat mixture with batter ( it rises back to the top when its done) and bake in a 350° for 20-25 mins, until cornbread is golden brown and done.

Thanks for the recipe. I make something like this periodically and I love it. However, I've never written it down and each time I bumble through from memory. Of course the results are hit or miss. So, I've printed it out and now have it in my recipe box. Thanks again.
