Cowboy Cornbread Casserole With Jiffy Ix

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients:
  • - 1 pound ground beef
  • - 1 packet taco seasoning
  • - 1 can Rotel or diced tomatoes with green chilies
  • - 1 can pinto beans
  • - 1 can corn drained
  • - 2 boxes Jiffy Cornbread Mix
  • - 2/3 cup milk
  • - 2 eggs
  • - 1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese optional

Instructions
 

  • Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). While the oven is heating, brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain any excess grease.
  • Stir in the taco seasoning, Rotel, pinto beans, and corn into the cooked ground beef. Mix well and let it simmer for a few minutes to combine the flavors.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the Jiffy Cornbread Mix, milk, and eggs, stirring until just blended. If you're using cheese, you can mix it in at this stage or sprinkle it on top later.
  • Pour the cornbread mixture over the beef mixture in the skillet. Gently stir to combine without overmixing. Transfer the entire mixture into a greased 9x13 baking dish.
  • Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes. You can uncover it for the last 10 minutes of cooking to allow the top to brown slightly. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center; it should come out clean.
  • For the best results, make sure to grease the baking dish well to prevent sticking, and consider adding your favorite toppings like sliced jalapeƱos or additional cheese before baking for extra flavor.
  • If you prefer to use a crockpot, you can cook it on low for 3-4 hours, layering the cornbread mix on top for a delicious finish. Enjoy your Cowboy Cornbread Casserole!
