Southwestern comfort food at its finest :)!!!

What you will need: 1 pound lean ground beef 1 medium yellow onion 1 green pepper 3 cloves of garlic 1/2 cup salsa of your choice 1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth 3/4 jar of room temperature queso dip 1/4 cup taco seasoning 1 tablespoon salt 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper 1 tablespoon dried oregano 1 box cornbread mix of your choice 1 bag of shredded cheese of your choice (cheddar, monterey jack, mexican blend, pepper jack)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Start off by dicing your onions. While dicing onions heat 1 tablespoon butter & 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Once onions are diced add to pan. Season onions with a pinch of salt & pepper. While onions are cooking deseed & dice green pepper, and peel & mince garlic. Once onions are translucent add peppers & garlic to pan. Cook on medium heat for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes mix around veggies to prevent from sticking, cover veggies, and reduce heat. Let simmer for 5-7 minutes, turning veggies every so often. After 5-7 minutes mix in ground beef, taco seasoning, salt & pepper, and dried oregano. Let brown. Once beef has browned add salsa & low sodium chicken broth, stir until well incorporated, cover, reduce heat, and let simmer on low heat for 15 minutes. While that is simmering make your cornbread mix. Typically this means adding 1 box of cornbread mix, 1 egg, and 1/3 cups of milk to a bowl & stirring well until no lumps & bumps. Once the ground beef has simmered for 15 minutes its time to start layering your casserole dish. First pour all the ground beef into the bottom, make sure to smooth everything out so it is evenly distributed. Then take about 1/4 of your jar of queso dip, and with a rubber spatula evenly smooth out the queso dip. If you need to add more queso to fill in the holes please do so. Now the second to last step is pouring your cornbread in an even layer over your queso. Again smoothing out with a rubber spatula. Finally the last step. Take about half the bag of the shredded cheese of your choice and sprinkle that over top of the cornbread. Place in 350 degree oven on bottom rack & let cook for 25 minutes or until golden brown making sure to check often! Let sit for 10-15 minutes before digging in. Enjoy!
