Lunchroom Tamale Pie image

This is one of those old recipes that tastes like the school lunchroom tamale pie. I always ate in the lunchroom on the day they served this. It is also one of the recipes that I just do, so prep time is an estimate only.

This recipe was a little too bland for me. I added some extra spices to the filling and it was much better.

I'm not a huge fan of tamales, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The cornbread crust was the perfect complement to the filling.

The cornbread crust was a little too dry for my taste, but the filling was delicious.

This tamale pie was a hit with my family! The cornbread crust was crispy and flavorful, and the filling was moist and cheesy. I added a layer of black beans for extra protein and it turned out great.
