Enjoy a comforting meal with Sloppy Joe Cornbread Casserole. Savory Sloppy Joe filling topped with fluffy cornbread creates a satisfying and hearty dish for family dinners.
Ingredients Ground beef, onion, bell pepper, tomato sauce, cornbread mix, and cheese combine to make this flavorful casserole. Essential seasonings enhance the dish's taste.
Cook ground beef with chopped onions and bell peppers until browned. Add tomato sauce and seasonings, then simmer to develop rich flavors.
Prepare cornbread mix according to package instructions. You can enhance the mix with shredded cheese or spices for extra flavor.
Layer the cooked Sloppy Joe filling in a baking dish, then spread the cornbread batter evenly on top, covering the filling completely.
Bake the casserole at 375°F (190°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until the cornbread topping is golden brown and cooked through.
Ensure the cornbread is fully cooked by inserting a toothpick. It should come out clean from the cornbread topping.

Let the casserole cool slightly before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh herbs or a dollop of sour cream if desired.
