Corn bread mix speeds the preparation of this Southwestern entree with beef and black beans. My husband really likes it, and guests seem to enjoy this unique Mexican dish. For a change of pace, try topping it with lettuce, guacamole or extra salsa. Ingredients:
1/2 pound ground turkey or beef |
1/2 cup chopped onion |
1/2 cup chopped green pepper |
1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained |
1 cup salsa |
1 package (8-1/2 ounces) corn bread/muffin mix |
1/4 cup milk |
1 egg |
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese, divided |
sour cream and sliced ripe olives, optional |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook the beef, onion and green pepper over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in beans and salsa; set aside.
2. In a large bowl, combine the muffin mix, milk, egg and 1 cup cheese. Pour into a greased 9-in. pie plate. Bake at 375° for 5-6 minutes.
3. Spoon beef mixture over crust, leaving a 1/2-in. edge. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake 1-2 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Serve with sour cream and olives if desired. Yield: 6-8 servings.
