How To Make stuffed upside down casserole

  • Step 1
    In a large skillet, brown the beef; drain. Stir in water and seasoning mix; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 6 minutes or until mixture is thickened.
  • Step 2
    Spread the chiles apart and slice each chile lengthwise in half and set aside.
  • Step 3
    In a large bowl, combine cornbread mix, corn, water and eggs; stir well. Spread half the batter in a well-greased 9x13-inch baking pan. Top with the ground beef mixture. Cover with cheese. Spread the remaining batter over cheese.
  • Step 4
    Arrange the chiles over the batter in a starburst pattern with a tomato slice in the center and the remaining six tomato slices alternating between the chiles, as in the picture.
  • Step 5
    Bake in a preheated 425-degree oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in cornbread comes out clean.
