FIESTA BEEF & CHEESE SKILLET COBBLER

Fiesta Beef & Cheese Skillet Cobbler image

I tweaked my beefy skillet cobbler until it achieved the wow factor. I must have gotten it right, as it's now a family tradition. Top it off with lettuce, avocado, cherry tomatoes and a dollop of sour cream. -Gloria Bradley, Naperville, Illinois
