Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe tomatoes and corn. If you don't have fresh tomatoes, you can use canned diced tomatoes, but be sure to drain them well before using.
- If you don't have a can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, you can make your own by blending 2 dried chipotle peppers with 1/4 cup of adobo sauce.
- If you like your tamale pie spicy, add an extra can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
- To make the tamale pie ahead of time, assemble it and bake it according to the recipe instructions. Then, let it cool completely and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat the tamale pie in a 350 degree Fahrenheit oven until it's heated through.
