Happy mouths

Want to see happy mouths around the table? Here's a crock pot meal that will fill those empty caverns. It may not be fine dining, but it's tasty... quick... satisfying... quick... requires one mixing bowl... did I mention quick?


This is the recipe.

Crock-Pot Tamale Pie

In a large bowl mix together:
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup beef broth
Let this stand 5 minutes.

Stir in:
1 lb. lean ground beef (that's right! You don't even have to brown it!)
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 (14-16 oz.) jar thick and chunky salsa (you choose the level of heat)
1 (16 oz.) can corn, drained
1/4 cup sliced ripe olives, optional

Pour this mixture into a 3.5 quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 5 hours, or until set.

Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese on top; cover and let the cheese melt (about 5 minutes). Makes about 6 servings.

There it is... dinner! I have not tried doubling the recipe. If you do, let me know how it turns out.
