Fiesta Bake

Serves 6

This was a "major league hit" when I served this to the ladies helping with the newsletter.

8 ounces ground 90% lean turkey or beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/2 cup (one 2.5-ounce jar) sliced mushrooms, drained
1 cup frozen corn
1 cup (8-ounce can) Hunt's Tomato Sauce
1 tablespoon chili seasoning
3/4 cup Bisquick Reduced Fat Baking Mix
3/4 cup chunky salsa (mild, medium or hot)
1/2 cup (1 1/2 ounces) shredded Kraft reduced-fat Cheddar cheese

Preheat over to 350 degrees. Spray an 8-by-8-inch baking dish with olive oil-flavored cooking spray. In a large skillet sprayed with olive oil-flavored cooking spray, brown meat, onion and green pepper. Add mushrooms, frozen corn, tomato sauce, and chili seasoning. Mix well to combine. Pout mixture into prepared baking dish. In a medium bowl, combine baking mix and salsa. Stir in Cheddar cheese. Spread mixture evenly over meat mixture. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Place baking dish on a wire rack and let set 5 minutes. Cut into 6 servings.

Each serving equals:
