Tamale Pie

"This simple Tamale Pie is a delicious and easy dinner recipe that comes together in about 15 minutes. The zesty ground beef filling is topped with a cheesy cornbread crust for a hearty casserole that's classic, old-school American comfort food! If you're a child of the 70's or 80's, then you likely grew up feasting on Tamale Pie. It's one of those great meals that appeals to just about everyone at the table, so it has stood the test of time. My mom baked her version of the ground beef casserole with a from-scratch cornmeal crust, but today we're making it even easier by cooking everything in a cast iron skillet and finishing it off with Jiffy cornbread!
