Tip

Cheddar Tip

Select sharp cheddar when using packaged shredded cheese from recipes that you’d like to have a bolder flavor. If you will be shredding cheese at home from bulk cheddar, you can choose from mild, medium, sharp and extra sharp.

This was very good and so easy. It is always helpful to read other reviews before making any dish and I took the suggestion of not draining the tomatoes. I think it needed that extra liquid. I was a bit generous with the cajun seasoning as we like things pretty spicy and considered adding a can of green chilies but didn't have any! The corn bread was excellent with the meat mixture! We will definitely make this casserole again!

If I had made it like the recipe it would have been bland. I put in 2 tsp of chili powder, dissolved 1 beef bullion cube in 1 cup water and boiled the mixture for 30 minutes - NOT 5! The veggies were very well cooked - the way we like them.

my family (including 2 kids) enjoyed it; i used fresh chopped broccoli instead of the frozd vegs; i didn't use the cajun seasonng but added some salsa. the cornbread crust came out nice. and you could never have enough shredded cheese!

Not bad. I actually forgot the cajun seasoning, so I use Montreal Steak seasoning and I didn't have any cheese for the top because my husband is a cheese fien and ate what I had left. The recipe was good though. The hubby liked it enough to go back three times, so I'll definitely be making it again.

Wonderful on this very cold & wintery day.

My husband and I did not care for this at all. It wasn't too spicy, but the flavor was something we didn't care for. Others may like it. We didn't.

I haven't tried this yet, but does the cornbread come out the right way or should you cook the cornbread first? Thanks

I had no problem with the recipe cooking it as is. I liked the corn muffin on the bottom, that was different.
