Your going to love this tamale pie recipe. It’s quick, easy and leftovers taste even better the next day.
The recipes says it serves 6 to 8 persons, but it’s a filling dish and there are usually leftovers. It really freezes well. When I am in a hurry and need a quick meal, I just grab it from the freezer, defrost it and toss it in the oven at about 325° for about 30 minutes.
I used to have a favorite recipe for a Tamale Pie Pioneer Woman. But, when I tasted this one and saw how easy it was to prepare, I abandoned my old favorite and made this recipe my new best friend.
I used to bring this dish to work sometimes when we would have what we called “Potluck Day”. It travels well and it’s good for feeding a crowd.
I got this recipe from a fund raiser cookbook that I purchased some time ago. This cookbook was compiled by employees of a furniture company. I felt the person who donated this recipe should be acknowledged. Her name is Christie Davis. Thank you Christie for this unique and tasty recipe.
