I loved the meat base of the pie but again I found that the jiffy mix was really hard to spread evenly on top and when it should have been cooked there were a few places where the jiffy mix was still a little gooey. Like Ms Bold I also added some kidney beans to the meat mix for a more chilli corn carne type dish. Thanks for posting!

This is another super simple recipe that has a great comfort food appeal. I omitted the green pepper and added onion with my browned ground beef. I also traded out the water for tomato juice for simmering to increase flavor. I increased the chili powder and garlic powder to taste, and added a generous shake of Montreal Steak seasoning. I also added a can of rinsed and drained kidney beans with the ground beef just because I thought it sounded good. We served this up with simple tossed salads, and had a great and easy weeknight meal.
