Tamale Pie

So soup eh?
My idea of a good soup recipe involves going to Brick Oven for their Cream of Broccoli or to Zupa's. If absolutely forced at home it involves Campbell's. Besides I support the Labels for Education drive at my kids school that way right?

So in leiu of a soup recipe I did find the Tamale Pie recipe that Grandma Putter used to make when she would come to visit my Aunt Vonnie. It really is good and a great fall recipe.

Ingredients:
2 cups milk 2 Tablespoons chili powder
3 eggs 1 15 oz. can of chopped tomatoes
2 cups corn meal 1 15 oz. can of creamed corn
1 cup oil 1 1/2 lb. ground beef
2 large onions (chopped) salt and pepper
1 can chopped olives 1 clove garlic (diced)

Directions:
Beat eggs and milk together. Add corn mean and oil, then let stand. Brown ground beef with onions, garlic and chili powder, then drain. Add tomotoes, creamed corn, olives and salt and pepper to the browned ground beef. Add the beef and corn meal mixtures together and mix well. Pour in greased pan and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
