These tamale cakes are a great way to use up leftover tamale filling. They're also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.

These tamale cakes were a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time, I'll use less chili powder.

These tamale cakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll add some more liquid next time.
