This is a dish that I hadn’t made for a very long time, but I love Tamale Pie! Not quite sure why as it is so good and so easy to whip together. I actually got in trouble from Amber as she said why hadn’t you made this for her before because it is so very good!! She gobbled it down and quickly got seconds.
I love Mexican food. There are so many great appetizers/entrees/desserts/drinks that come out of Mexico, the list is endless. I have been to Mexico many times and I have loved my visits every time and especially the food. So come and look at the fabulous list of recipes this #SundaySupper has to offer. They all look great!! So put on your sombrero and pull up a seat senor and senorita!!

Filling
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 2 tsp. chili powder
- 1-10 oz. can of tomato soup
- 1 cup green pepper chopped
- 1 cup frozen corn thawed
- 1/2 cup salsa
- 1/4 cup water
Cornmeal Bread Topping

- 3 tsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 egg slightly beaten

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F. Brown beef in a large saute pan. Then add the rest of the filling ingredients and simmer for 5 min. Place the mixture into a 8×11″ pan sprayed lightly with cooking spray.
- Mix together the cornmeal and milk and set aside for 5 min. Meanwhile stir together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Stir into the cornmeal mixture the egg and melted butter.
