Kitchen Crafts – Cornbread Taco Pie

This is one of my favorite recipes because it’s so fast and easy!  You just open up cans and packages and dump things in.  My kind of cooking.  🙂  Also, it includes cornbread… yum!

Ingredients:

-1 lb ground beef
-1 can (abt 19oz) black beans w/ liquid
-1 can (abt 14.5 oz) petite-cut tomatoes
-1 pkg (abt 1.25 oz) mild taco seasoning
-1 cornbread mix or recipe for 8 x 8 pan (I use Marie Calendar’s)
-1/2 cup shredded cheese

Instructions:

  1. In large skillet brown beef and drain. Stir in beans, tomatoes, and seasoning. Bring to boil over high heat. Cook 1 minute or until heated through.
  2. Pour taco mixture into 9 x 13 pan.
  3. Prepare cornbread mix according to package instructions and lightly pour or spoon over the top of your taco mixture.
  4. Bake 15 minutes at 425°. Sprinkle top with cheese and bake 5 more minutes (until cornbread is done).

This looks so good! Have any of you who have tried it added cheese to the beef mixture, instead of on top of cornbread? Just curious.

Ooh, I haven't tried that, but it sounds like a great idea! I don't love how the cheese hardens on the top a little, and this would prevent that.

Your cornbread taco pie recipe has two sizes of pans to use, 8x8 and 9x13 so what size do I use? Thank you.

You use a 9x13 for the recipe. You just want a cornbread mix that is made for an 8x8 so it's a thin layer of cornbread on the top. Does that make sense?

Oh, I'm so glad you liked it! My kids only eat it after I tell them there is cornbread on the top. Haha. My son tries his hardest to pick out the little tomatoes. Silly kids.

I made this and it was AWESOME!!! We have such a variety of likes and dislikes in our family, I was skeptical as to how the kiddos were going to like the beans and tomatoes (hence the dislikes) but to my surprise they ALL loved the dish. It always makes me soo happy when i find a dish everyone truly enjoys. I look forward to trying more of your recipes! THANKS :)
