1 lb. ground beef or pork
1 onion
1 green pepper
1 cup frozen or fresh corn
1 (10 oz.) can tomato sauce
1/4 cup green olives
1 tbsp. chili powder
1 tsp. cumin
hot sauce (Texas Pete or similar)

Start by heating a large sauté pan on medium heat. Drizzle a little olive oil into the pan to keep the ingredients from sticking.

Dice onion and green pepper and sauté them together for about 2 minutes, or until the onions begin to get translucent.

Next, you should add ground beef, stirring until the meat has browned. While the meat is cooking, add chili powder and ground cumin.

Add olives and corn while continuing to stir the meat/veggie mixture. After a minute or so, feel free to add a couple of shots of hot sauce and a pinch of salt and pepper to the mixture.

Cook this for a minute or so before pouring on the tomato sauce. Stir thoroughly, then cover pan with a lid and turn the heat down to low. Let this mixture simmer for 30 minutes.

Once the mixture has finished cooking, take it off the stove and pour it into a glass pie plate. (Do not overfill the pie plate.)

On top of the pie we will add a cornbread crust.

Cornbread Crust:

1 cup cornmeal
1 egg
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup milk

Into a bowl add cornmeal, egg, water and milk. Blend the batter with a whisk or fork until smooth. Then pour it atop the pie.

Pop the pie into a 450°F oven for 10 minutes until the cornbread crust browns.

Serves 6.
