Beef and Cornbread Squares image

I love cornbread, and this just fits the bill. Almost a cold weather recipe, but when you makes this, it becomes an any time recipe! I make this all the time for when my usual Monday Night Football Armchair Quarterbacks come over! We seldom get to go to their houses because they want what I cook! They always say, "but you cook so good". I'm sure a lot of you know what I mean! I hope you like it, and let me know how it goes for your own MNFB crowd! Enjoy! This doubles and triples great. Here's a tip: I used to buy the cans of tomatoes and green chilis, such as Rotel), but since they are pricey, I buy the tomatoes and green chilis separately. You will get more for the money and you will have enough to double or triple the recipe. If I have leftover chilis and tomatoes, I freeze them for something else. Top this with my salsa #218314!
