Corn Bread Tamale Pie

• 1 lb. ground beef
• 1 chopped onion
• 1 can tomato soup
• 1 c. water
• 1/4 tsp. pepper
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 Tbsp. chili powder
• 1 c. whole kernel corn
• 1/2 c. chopped green pepper
• 3/4 c. corn meal
• 1 Tbsp. flour
• 1 Tbsp. sugar
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1 beaten egg
• 1/3 c. milk
• 1 Tbsp. cooking oil

1. Preheat the oven to 425u0b0.
2. Saute together the ground beef and onion.
3. When the meat is lightly browned, add the soup, water, pepper, 1 teaspoon salt, chili powder, corn and green pepper. Simmer all together for 15 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, mix together the corn meal, flour, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and baking powder. Moisten with egg and milk.
5. Mix lightly and fold in the cooking oil.
6. Place meat mixture in a greased 2-quart casserole and cover with the corn bread topping.
7. (When I'm in a hurry, I omit the last 3 steps and just use a Jiffy boxed corn bread mix.)
8. Place in oven and bake for about 20 to 25 minutes or until corn bread is brown.
