Tamale Pie

with Quick Guacamole and Poblano Pepper

Tamales are usually stuffed with tasty things like chiles and vegetables, and then steamed in corn husks for a tender bite. To maintain the flavor but cut down the cooking time, we make these tamales casserole style. The cornmeal crust only needs about 15 minutes to bake. Be sure to spread it evenly over the filling while it’s still hot.
