Oh, I’m thinking another recipe would work too. As long as it sticks to the hotdog when you’re frying it (I’m assuming you’re talking about making corndogs, not the muffins). If you ARE talking about the muffin, then for sure it would work!

Laura,
Sounds like a fun recipe! Just one question…I make your corndog muffins and that had a different cornbread recipe. Do you think that one would work too? The reason I ask is because I hardly ever just have buttermilk on hand, but all the other things I keep on hand so the other recipe would be easier.
Thanks!

ok- I made this twice now and the first time I forgot to sweeten the cornbread so I thought I’d try again. I loved it but my family thought it was too dry. but I did try your taco potatos and yumm yumm, they were awesome!!!

Yummo! I picked up a recipe like this at Trader Joe’s one day. They had two added layers, frozen veggies on top of the meat and then grated cheese. Then the cornbread (with jalepenos mixed in). The frozen veggies are a mix of edamame, corn, red bell pepper. One could use anything. Great way to put a little bit of vegetable into the meal!

This was a slam dunk with my whole family. It’s going into our regular dinner rotation. Although I think I will just try 1.5 times the cornbread recipe next time, double was really thick. Thanks for sharing such a great and simple idea!

This is an awesome recipe! My husband, three boys and I all loved it! Thank you for developing so many healthy, easy, fun and boy loving recipes. Everything I have tried from your blog my family has loved. Your hysterical sense of humor is icing on the cake! I shared this one on Facebook tonight.

I make this all the time, although I grew up calling it “tamale pie”… we add whole olives to the mix, too. Very tasty.

I make “sloppy cornbread” with leftover corn muffins, too – also a hit. :)

This is yummy and easy looking. The next time lean ground beef is on sale, it will go home with me and be made into this.

Just made this for the family for lunch. It is good, but it wasn’t a hit by any means (kids ages 4,6,7 and non-picky husband). I probably won’t make it again, but if I did, I would NOT double the cornbread recipe – just do a thin layer on top of the meat. And it’s very important for the meat to be hot so that it helps the cornbread cook on the bottom. It took closer to 30 minutes for this to cook (even w/ the hot meat.)

Oooo, I never thought to try this with sloppy joe meat!! I’ve always made it with chili and cheese beneath the cornbread!
