Taco Cornbread Casserole

We just had a small get together at our home where one of things we served our guests are nachos. Since taco meat is a popular choice item on the nacho bar, I made sure that I made a lot of them. I might have just made a little bit too much so we had a lot of meat leftovers.

Now what to do with the taco meat? This question prompted a search on the web for some left over magic ideas… which resulted to the Taco Cornbread Casserole being born from out of our kitchen for the first time!

You will need:

1 package store bought corn bread mix

1 cup grated cheddar cheese

½ cup milk

1 cup cooked taco seasoned meat

½ can Cream Corn (approx. ¾ of a cup)

• Preheat oven to 400F.
• Mix cornbread mixture according to package directions. Add the milk and corn. Pour half of the mixture on a prepared (greased) baking dish or pan. Layer on the hamburger meat and ½ cup grated cheddar cheese. Pour the remaining half of the cornbread mixture on top and add the remaining grated cheese on top.
• Bake in the oven. Do a stick test to see if it is done. Baking will take to about 30 minutes.
