Ingredients

2 (8.5 ounce) packages cornbread mix (such as Jiffy®)
1 ½ cups milk
2 large eggs
1 pound ground beef
1 onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 (10 ounce) cans diced tomatoes with green chile peppers, divided
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
½ cup frozen corn

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Mix cornbread mix, milk, and eggs together in a bowl. Pour into a lightly greased, nonstick oven-proof skillet.
Bake in the preheated oven until center is set, about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook and stir ground beef in a skillet until hot and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Add onion, bell pepper, and garlic; saute until onion is translucent. Add 1 can of tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Stir in frozen corn.
Mix refried beans and remaining can of tomatoes in a separate bowl. Spread over the baked cornbread. Top with the beef mixture and cover with Cheddar cheese.
Return to the oven until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
