Tamale Cobbler / Regular and Vegetarian / reposted

Just because I'm Vegetarian doesn't mean I have to sacrifice a good recipe.

I transform many recipes to  be Vegetarian. 

This is a favorite, as well as a Vegetarian King Ranch Casserole.

Another Tex - Mex Best of the Best Recipe.

Vegetarian Tamale Cobbler

1 12 ounce package of Vegetarian Ground Beef, browned in a little vegetable oil. ( I use the brand, Quorn) ( Yves makes a good one too). 1 pound of ground beef for all you others! Just brown it.

1 can , 14 1/4 ounce Fiesta Style Corn or Mexi Corn, drained

1 jar, 30 ounces of your favorite Salsa , I prefer a chunky version.

1/2 tsp Cumin

1/2 tsp Chili Powder ( homemade recipe follows)

1/4 tsp garlic salt

1- 8oz. container of sour cream

1 C Shredded Mexican Style Cheese

1 box of corn muffin mix, prepared according to instructions, but not baked.

Homemade Chili Powder:

2 TBS Paprika

2 tsp Oregano

1 1/4 tsp Cumin

1 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder

1 1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper

3/4 tsp Onion Powder

Make a bunch and store it in a jar in your Pantry! ( Texans always have it on hand)!

Combine Beef, Corn, Salsa, Cumin, Chili Powder, Garlic Salt, Sour Cream and Cheese in a large bowl and mix well.

Pour into a greased 2 1/2 QT Casserole.

Evenly dropped the prepared Muffin Mix by heaping tablespoons onto the mixture.

Bake at 375 degrees for 40 minutes. The top should be golden brown.

Enjoy!

Peace in the Kitchen!
