Mexican Chili Pie image

This recipe is one of my husband Dwayne's favorite, especially during cooler weather. The topping is crunchy, and the chili has just enough spice to warm you up inside in even the coldest weather! I add a simple side salad to complete the meal.-Heather Thurmeier, Pense, Saskatchewan

This is a great way to use up leftover cornbread. I just crumble it up and use it as the topping for the pie.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I usually use ground turkey instead of beef, and I add a can of black beans for extra protein.
