The Recipe
Chili & Mini Corn Bread Bites
An easy weeknight meal that makes for great leftovers. Cheesy corn bread bites with chili that has the right amount of heat. Kids and grown ups will both love this delicious dinner. Perfect for game day too!
Ingredients
2.5 lbs of ground beef
1 28 oz can of crushed tomatoes
2 12 oz jars of chili sauce
1 medium yellow onion, diced
1 green pepper, diced
2 T of butter
1 packet of chili seasoning from the spice aisle
1 t of Cinnamon
Chili powder and cumin to taste
2 boxes of Jiffy corn muffin mix
1/2 C of shredded cheddar
1/2 c of milk
1/2 c of sour cream
1/2 C of frozen corn
2 Eggs
2 t of chili powder
2 T of honey
Non Stick Spray
Instructions
- Add your diced onions and green peppers to a deep skillet with the butter and cook until the onions and peppers are soft.
- Add your ground beef and cook the beef all the way through. You can drain the beef if you choose, once it is cooked.
- Add your crushed tomatoes, the chili seasoning packet, the two jars of the chili sauce, the cinnamon and give it a good stir and let it simmer for 20 minutes.
- Give your chili a taste and if you like the flavor let it simmer for thirty more minutes. This chili is on the mild, sweeter side so if you like add some chili powder and cumin a couple teaspoons at a time to the chili and give it a taste until it is to your liking. We like ours spicy so I add 2 T of chili powder to mine and 1/2 T of cumin. Let the chili simmer for 35 more minutes.
- While your chili simmers, mix your corn muffin mix with all the other ingredients. Spray a mini muffin tin or a cupcake tin with the non stick spray and fill each spot 3/4's full with the batter. I needed to use 2, mini muffin pans as this yielded 36 mini muffins. You can also bake in batches.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes, check on them at 15 minutes, every oven is different.
- When the muffins are done, let them cool for 20 minutes.
- To serve, I place a little chili on the bottom of the dish, add three mini muffins, top with more chili, shredded cheddar, sour cream and onions. You can use any toppings you choose.
- Enjoy!
