This recipe has been a great hit over at Food.com! It has received plenty of wonderful feedback from readers – let’s take a look at what some of them have had to say about this cornbread taco bake:
This is really good! I added more onions before cooking the meat (instead of after), and added the cheese after cooking (instead of before) but followed the other directions. I recommend this as something different than regular old tacos!
Oh so good! I made it exactly as stated and everybody loved it and had seconds. Will make this one again. Thanks for a winner!
This will definitely be added on our dinner rotation? What about you?

Quick Tip: Why not add a dollop of Daisy sour cream to the top of each serving?
Thank you to Food.com for this awesome recipe!
My family has been making a version of this recipe for decades. Instead of the diced tomatoes, I add a jar of salsa for added flavor. I also use one can of Mexicorn and one can of kidney beans (be sure to drain the liquid off of both cans). I also use taco seasoning instead of chili powder. And for those who really love corn bread, prebake a thin layer of corn bread in your baking dish then the ground beef/veggies layer, then more corn bread! We call this Tamale Pie. Yum!
I also grew up on it. Tamale pie was one of my favorite dishes my mom used to make. I made it for my kids and my granddaughters love it.
