I substituted shredded cooked chicken for the ground beef, and it worked out well.

We made this last night and it was very delicious! It was really easy to make as well. To make things a little easier, we used some Baking Spray (like Pam), the kind with flour mixed in - instead of the greasing the pan and using the cornmeal. Worked like a charm.
