Cornbread Tacos

Cornbread Tacos
1 lb. ground beef
1 cup of corn
1 small can of sliced olives
1 large can of tomato sauce
1 packet of Lawry's taco seasoning ( I just used what I had.)
1 packet of Marie Calendar's corn bread


1. Cook ground beef, seasoning with garlic salt and pepper (drain)
2. Add corn, olives, tomato sauce and taco seasoning (set aside)
3. Follow directions on back of corn bread
4. In a 9x13 pan add the meat mixture and spread out evenly. Next add the cornbread mix and cover meat mixture completely.
5. Cook at 375* for 35 minutes and sprinkle with some cheddar cheese!! (optional)


I thought this was a really good spin on cornbread and taco stuff. It had really good flavor.
When cooking the meat mixture with the sauce, it ends up being a little runny. I thought there was something wrong, but when you cook it, it becomes solid. There ends up being a lot of cornbread on top of the mixture, so I would maybe add more meat and maybe add some beans to make it more filling.
*not the best picture, but this was SOOOOO good!!
