EASY TAMALE CASSEROLE



Easy Tamale Casserole image

My mom liked to make the Hamburger Helper® version of this recipe. When I moved to another state, I could not find it, so I came up with this. Memories of home. My hubby likes for me to spice this up sometimes, so I will use a 14-ounce can of tomatoes and green chiles in it or just use a Mexican-style cornbread mix sometimes.

CONNIE'S TAMALE CASSEROLE



Connie's Tamale Casserole image

I've made this recipe for my family and our friends and they really liked it. Its very simple to make and warms them up on a cold day. The left overs are just as good if not better than the day you make it. Instead of using the canned tamales, I started using the fresh or frozen ones. That really makes the difference. The canned ones are a bit oily to use but you can use them. you will need to drain them and pat them dry first. We like the pork tamales but you can use either beef, or chicken. The pork just taste better to us.
