Tacofiesta Leftovers Cornbread Tamale Pie Type Thingy
Just an idea to throw together if you end up having a big taco party like we did and have some leftovers you want to makeover into something tasty. :)
Ingredients
-
My Buttermilk Corn Muffins Batter: https://cookpad.com/us/recipes/1490085-buttermilk-corn-muffins
-
1/4 cup chopped roasted or canned green chilies, well drained (I used the fire roasted jalapeños leftover from our party)
-
4 cups shredded carnitas or pulled pork. If pork wasn't cooked in a sauce, you can mix it with 1/2 to 3/4 cup salsa of choice
-
2 cups refried or stewed beans
-
1 jalapeño, cut into 1/8" thick slices
-
1 (16 ounce) tub of sour cream or Mexican crema agria to serve on the side
Cooking Instructions
-
1
Preheat oven to 400F.
-
2
While oven is preheating, make Buttermilk Corn Muffins Batter and add in green chilies.
-
3
In a 9"x 13" casserole or baking dish, layer the pork first, then beans, then cheese.
-
4
Spread batter evenly over the layered ingredients and bake on center rack for 20 minutes.
-
5
Brush the top of cornbread with buttermilk (or just run a stick of butter over the entire surface area), dot with jalapeño slices, and bake for another 15 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the casserole comes out dry and clean indicating that the batter has baked through.

6
Serve with sour cream on the side.
