Green Corn Tamale Casserole image

This recipe was posted from a restaurant in Tucson, Arizona. There are no tamales in the dish, but it does incorporate a cornmeal-type polenta with cheese, canned mild green chilies, corn and eggs. Sounds like it would be a great brunch item.

This casserole was amazing! It was creamy, cheesy, and the corn was perfectly cooked. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but this casserole was a huge disappointment. It was bland, dry, and the corn was mushy. I definitely won't be making this again.
