Tamale pie is a Mexican inspired dish with ground meat and seasonings topped off with a cornbread crust. In this video I've used green bell pepper,red onion, a can of fire roasted tomatoes, a can of Goya red beans in their sauce and a couple of smoked chipolte peppers for even more flavor. The cornbread crust uses two cups of shredded cheddar cheese. (One cup mixed into the crust and the remaining sprinkled on top before placing in oven.) The simplicity of this dish makes it a great weekday meal.
This tamale dish is also great for entertaining as it can be brought right to the dining table. To complement this dish with a Mexican theme, why not try this Margarita Madness Gift BasketThis set comes complete with everything to make delicious margaritas.
