California Tamale Pie

Easy to make, but not as great as we hoped. 2 out of 5 in my family wouldn't eat it. I thought it was pretty good with salsa dumped over it but probably wouldn't make it again.

Made this for a company potluck. Browned the meat at home, mixed the dry ingredients and added them to the browned meat. Combined the meat mixture with the milk/egg and corn meal at work and plugged in the crock pot. Four hours later we celebrated birthdays. The crock pot was scrapped clean. Best rating I could have gotten. Everyone raved at how godd it was.

Beef in Red Wine

We really enjoyed this dish. The flavor was wonderful. I am going to use leftovers over noodles. However, I needed to use more cornstarch than the recipe called for to make the gravy thick enough
