1 large onion chopped
2 gloves of garlic chopped fine
28 oz whole tomatoes
15 oz kidney beans with juice
1 1/4 cp cornmeal
1 cp grated cheddar cheese
2 T chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
Dash of Tabasco sauce
1 1/4 cp of skim milk
2 eggs, lightly beaten
salt & pepper to taste

Stir over low heat until it thickens a little. Then add the remaining cheese and the eggs, stirring until smooth. Pour this over the ground beef mixture. Bake uncovered at 375 deg. for 30 minutes or until the crust is lightly browned.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality cheddar cheese. The cheese is the star of the show in this recipe, so make sure you use a sharp cheddar that melts well.
  • Don't overcook the chili. The chili should be cooked through, but not overcooked. Overcooked chili will be tough and dry.
  • Use a pre-made pie crust to save time. If you're short on time, you can use a pre-made pie crust from the store. Just be sure to thaw it according to the package directions before using it.
  • Top the pie with your favorite toppings. Before baking, you can top the pie with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cheddar cheese, diced onions, or sour cream.
  • Let the pie cool slightly before serving. This will help the pie to set and make it easier to slice.
