1 lb. ground turkey, chicken, or beef
1/2 cup chopped onion, or 1 tsp onion powder

1 can diced tomatoes, drained
1 can Fiesta corn, drained
2 boxes Jiffy cornbread mix
2 eggs
2/3 cup milk
~2 cups shredded cheese (I use both cheddar and Monterey jack)

- Preheat oven to 350.
- Brown ground meat with onion. Add garlic, chili powder, and cumin. Stir in tomato sauce, tomatoes, beans, and corn. Turn heat to low and allow to simmer while prepping cornbread.
