OPEN FACE MEXICAN SLOPPY JOES OVER CORNBREAD



Open Face Mexican Sloppy Joes over Cornbread image

Another comfort food. Open face sloppy Joes on corn bread (with a few additions). It has a bit of a Mexican flare but still very mild. I also love to serve this with Mexican coleslaw, but the sloppy Joe's are great on their own. I even make this with ground turkey which has less fat, but that it is up to you. I like to serve over a spicy cornbread and top with some monterey jack cheese. It makes a great Saturday or Sunday dinner.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 lb ground turkey
1/2 cup green pepper, diced
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 celery rib, diced
1 small onion, diced
14 1/2 ounces diced Mexican tomatoes
8 ounces tomato sauce
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 pinch sugar
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
salt
pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil to saute the vegetables and turkey
1 cup monterey jack cheese
3 scallions, fine chopped
2 (14 ounce) boxes Jiffy cornbread mix (or your favorite mix along with eggs and milk according to directions)
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 cup diced green chilis
1 cup monterey jack cheese

Steps:

  • Vegetables -- In a large saute pan, add the oil and bring to medium heat. Saute the celery, garlic, onion and green pepper until lightly sauteed.
  • The turkey -- once the vegetables are soft, add the turkey inches Saute until golden brown and vegetables are soft.
  • Add the tomatoes, sauce, and paste, seasoning, Worcestershire, salt and pepper to taste. And just let simmer 30-40 minutes.
  • Cornbread -- Mix the cornbread mix, the milk and eggs according to the box directions. Add the green chilies (lightly drained, I keep a little juice), seasoning and cheese. Bake according to directions. I like to use a 13x9" pan.
  • Cut the cornbread into squares and then serve Sloppy Joe sauce over the top. Garnish with grated cheese and scallions.
  • I love to serve with this with coleslaw or black beans or a simple green salad.

This is a favorite at my house. Hispanic people call it "Picadillo". Usually eaten with flour tortillas, I have added the cheese sauce and sour cream. Hope you enjoy!

My family is fond of many recipes that feature Bisquick Baking Mix for their ease of preparation. Now combine that with the fact we're nuts about Mexican food, this was right up our alley. This recipe came from a little paperback cookbook called "A Taste of Mexico." It's a little gem that is filled with recipes contributed by high school Homemaking teachers from all over California. Let me know what you think. My family really enjoys this one.
