This Mexican Chicken, Corn & Black Bean Cornbread Casserole only takes 5 minutes prep time. The creamy chicken filling is topped with cheesy cornbread. I used some taco seasoning which I bought in Santa Fe New Mexico which was VERY hot! I happen to like it that way, not sure about the rest of my family!

This looks a lot like a standard dish from my childhood that my mom called “tamale pie”, except that she made it with cooked ground beef, as everyone did with everything in those days.

I’m glad to see you’re not too proud to get down with the hoi polloi and use a boxed mix occasionally. 🙂
