FIESTA CHILI CORNBREAD PIE



Fiesta Chili Cornbread Pie image

This is a quick meal and sort of like a pizza made with a corn bread crust. It makes two and is yummy. It makes a good Sunday night meal or great for the sports fan to munch on while cheering for their favorite team. This is a good recipe to use any Chili you have made and put in the freezer or you can use the canned.

FIESTA PIE WITH CHIPOTLE CORNBREAD TOPPING



Fiesta Pie With Chipotle Cornbread Topping image

An easy casserole that can be doubled for a crowd. We like it spicy so we use medium or hot salsa. I use chipotles in adobo sauce (chopped) for the corn bread topping. Ground turkey can be subbed for the ground beef if you prefer. The recipe is from a junior league cookbook.

FIESTA CORNBREAD



Fiesta Cornbread image

This is a particularly moist, rich cornbread with a crispy crust. It is delicious with chili, vegetable soup and grilled pork chops, collards and summer squash. I am a firm believer in Duke's mayonnaise. It gives this recipe a delicious richness--do not use low fat mayo! You may use low fat buttermilk and/or sour cream...
