Ingredients
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef and onion in the hot skillet until beef is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
While the beef is cooking, make stuffing. Bring water and butter to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in stuffing mix; cover. Remove from heat. Let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
Stir both cans of diced tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, and hot sauce into the beef mixture. Simmer for 2 minutes. Add corn and Cheddar cheese. Simmer until cheese is melted completely, about 1 minute. Transfer mixture to a casserole dish. Spread cornbread stuffing evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven until browned, 20 to 30 minutes.
Cook's Notes:
You can use shredded Mexican-style cheese instead of Cheddar.
For a healthier option, use ground turkey and low-fat cheese.
The directions for making the stuffing are based on the particular brand mentioned. Follow instructions on the box if using a different brand.
