Tamale Pie US Army [40s 50s]
1 can tomatoes (28 oz) (sometimes I add 2 cans, since I love tomatoes) 2 cans creamed corn (16 oz each) 2 cloves garlic, chopped 1 tbs butter or margarine 1/4 cup olive oil 2 Tbs. chili powder 1 lb. low fat Italian turkey sausage (either hot or mild) (the original recipe called for regular old bulk sausage, but we're trying to be healthier, and this works great) 1 tsp. salt 2 cans black olives, drained well (16 oz each) 2 cups yellow corn meal 3 cups milk (I use skim) 3 beaten eggs (or equivalent egg substitute) Combine all ingredients except corn meal, milk, and eggs in 5 or 6 quart pan. Cook over low heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add corn meal, milk, and eggs. Cook an additional 15 minutes, stirring often, since it can stick. Pour into 2 greased (or sprayed) baking dishes (9x13 ish; this isn't critical; it can be in slightly smaller ones, but baking time may be slightly longer) Bake in 350 oven for about 30 minutes, until well set. Let sit for 5 minutes or so before cutting. Consistency should be just slightly less firm than cornbread.
