Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375ðF (190ðC) and lightly grease a 9-inch pie plate or small baking dish.
  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef and chopped onion until the beef is browned and the onions are translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
  3. Reduce heat to low and stir in the condensed tomato soup, 1 1/2 cups of water, salt, black pepper, and chili powder. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly.
  4. Stir in the canned corn kernels and chopped green pepper, mixing well to combine all ingredients.
  5. Pour the meat and vegetable mixture into the prepared pie dish, spreading it out evenly.
  6. If using a cornbread mix, prepare the batter according to package directions and pour it evenly over the filling. If using whole kernels as a topping, arrange them neatly over the top.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
