Notes

For best results, ensure that the beef is thoroughly cooked and drained of excess fat before adding other ingredients. You can customize the spiciness by choosing a mild or hot salsa according to your preference. Be sure to let the casserole rest to allow the flavors to meld and the cornbread to set properly.
