The family really enjoyed this one…figured I would share. Very easy to make and really delicious.


1 pound ground venison

1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves, crushed

3/4 cup Chunky Salsa Sauce (Picante)

1 can (about 8 ounces) tomato sauce

1 can (about 16 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained (Used half the amount of corn they suggested, depends how much you like corn I guess)

2 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese (about 1/2 cup)

1 package (about 8 ounces) corn muffin mix (I used a larger pan and twice the cornbread mix)


______________________________________________________________________

1.Cook the venison and oregano in a 10 or 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until the venison is well browned, stirring often to break up the meat. Pour off any fat.

2.Stir the picante sauce, tomato sauce and corn in the skillet. Cook until the mixture is hot and bubbling. Stir in the cheese. Pour the venison mixture into a 2-quart shallow baking dish.

3.Mix the corn muffin mix according to the package directions. Spread the batter over the venison mixture.

4.Bake at 375°F. for 25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

 
Yum, I make a similar one but sauté onions, peppers, corn and whatever else I have around in with the meat.

oh yeah its good. the longer it sits and soaks into the bread the better it is too. REAL good. Real good with a little extra srirachi or somethin on top too!

I did a double batch with 2 pounds venison, 2 cups salsa, one 8oz can of tomato sauce, one 16oz can of corn, 2 cups sharp cheddar, 3 8oz boxes of Jiffy (with 3 eggs, 1 cup milk). Baked at 375F for 30 minutes.

I made a double batch too. One just like you posted and a second batch with venison sausage, jalapeno peppers, corn and cheddar cheese, with a honey cornbread mix. The savory & sweet flavors of this one was my families favorite. I just put some butter on top and made sweet potato fries with cinnamon and steamed broccoli. The only problem with it is it's very heavy, and so good you eat too much.
 
Mines in the oven.. 10 mins to go!

i might have screwed up tho.. I mixed the cornbread batter before I started so it was ready to go and by time I did the stovetop stuff the batter was thickened... I gave it a quick few stirs to liquefy it again, and used it. Fingers crossed
