You must cook this much longer than the recipe calls for...about 1 hr. I kept checking after 25 minutes like the recipe says the toothpick was not coming out clean....but very good.

Good and easy! I cut out the jalapenos, but added a small can of diced green chilies and taco seasoning with the ground beef. I only used 1 3/4 boxes of corn muffin mix & 1 3/4 cup of milk. Baked for 40 minutes with foil covering, then 10 minutes without. Very good!

Good Toddler food! I also added taco seasoning to the meat, makes it a bit spicy but our family likes it that way. I did not have creamed corn, so I used regular cooked frozen corn, worked fine.

This was very filling. I tweaked the recipe using other reviews for inspiration. I doubled the meat, used mild green chiles and cooked 1/2 of them with the meat. I seasoned the meat with lots of pepper, garlic salt and taco seasoning (1-1/2 packages). I also added 1/2 cup cheddar cheese to the mixture and seasoned the whole thing up with more pepper, salt and garlic powder. I cooked it for 25 minutes and then added the cup of cheese to the top and baked it for another 25 minutes. It still tasted a BIT bland and I normally don't salt my food but a dash of salt made it perfect. My husband hasn't tried it yet but if he likes it, I will make it again!

While this sounded great, it is not a recipe I will do again. At least not this way. This took twice as long as the time it says to cook and it still was gummy. The cornbread only completely cooked around the edges. :( I added green chiles instead of jalapenos and some seasonings that my family liked and the taste was good...just wasn't cooked. If I did do it again, I would cut it in half and use a 9x9 pan.

This recipe is very versatile and almost fool proof. I added a pack of taco seasoning to the meat after browning and 4 teaspoons of diced jalapeno slices.If you want the meat to have an extra kick I suggest doubling the teaspoons of chili. Only used 1 cup of milk for corn bread mix as others suggested. Then I layered bread,meat,cream corn and bread,then sprinkled the top with grated monterey jack cheese. Baked it for about an hour and it came out beautiful and marvelous! My husband and I went back for thirds and he said it tasted even better the next day.

My husband and I were so looking forward to this recipe. On paper it seemed promising. It ended up simply tasting like corn bread. The beef was completely lost. We were trying to come up with ways to save this next time we made this, but just decided to give it up completely. I tried to bring it the next day as leftovers at work, but my husband just threw it out for me (we teach at the same school)!

We did not care for this at all which was disappointing because it sounded so good. The center was gooey and the outside edges were dry after 25 minutes. It had a very bland flavor and you could not even taste the ground meat in it.

I really loved this recipe! I love cornbread, and this was a great main dish that filled me and my husband up. I used one half water and one half milk for the liquids. I also did not have jalapenos, so I used drained Rotel tomatoes which were delicious in the cornbread. Also, I served it with a side of baked beans, which went well with the dish.

I used this as a base to make mini muffin appetizers. I only used one 8 oz. box of corn muffin mix, 1 egg and after adding the cream corn it didn't even need more liquid. I used about 1/4 cup of chopped jalapenos and did sprinkle the meat with garlic powder.

This was pretty good. I followed the suggestions of other reviewers and cooked the ground beef with pack of taco seasoning and fresh garlic and I doubled up on the jalapeño's and reduced the milk to a cup. I also increased the cheese by 1/2 cup putting 1/2 cup into the mix and then 25 minutes into baking I put the balance on top. I must say it smelled great while baking and looked great coming out of the oven! The 20-25 min time is way off as noted by others, it took a good 50 min to cook through. Definitely glad that I tried it and will probably make this again.

I give it a 4 as is, but when I altered it, a definite 5 stars. I followed advice of others and added spices to meat mixture (chili powder, cumin, mexican oregano, garlic) reduced milk to 1 cup (I think that is the problem with it not getting done in time. Added smoked green chiles to the meat mixture and cornbread (1/2 & 1/2) Didn't mix the meat in with the cornbread, just put down half cornbread mixture (w/cheddar) and put meat on top of that and topped w/remaining cornbread. Baked 25 min and it was perfectly done. Will make again using maybe chicken or even diced ham. So many possibilities with this one.
