Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium bell pepper chopped
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 can chili beans with sauce
  • 2 tbsp taco seasoning
  • 1 box corn muffin mix
  • 8 oz. sour cream
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tomato diced

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees
  • In an oven-proof dish, brown the ground beef. Add the peppers and onions and cook until the vegetables are soft.
  • Drain the excess fat from the pan and season with the taco seasoning
  • Stir in the chili beans and cook until they’re warmed through
  • While the mixture is heating, combine the muffin mix, sour cream and egg
  • Gently spread the batter over the top of the ground beef mixture to cover it completely
  • Bake for 15 minutes. Top with the cheese, and bake another 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted & golden
  • Let stand about 5 minutes before topping with the diced tomatoes

Notes

Slice it up and serve it right out of the pan. A nice green salad on the side is the perfect compliment.
