We liked this recipe. It was different, but good. I like that it was very simple to make.

We really liked this one! I baked it in the oven because I forgot to put in in the crockpot in time and t worked just fine. This was much better than other tamale pie type recipes that I've tried. Other ones have always been too dry.

My family enjoyed this easy version of Tomalie Pie. Time was short enough to whip together in the afternoon and still have it ready for dinner. I kept it on high to wrap it up in less time (3 Hrs.)
