    Help!, leftover beef roast and cornbread topping. Can I use this recipe for beef?

    How much tomato sauce, it’s not clear or I missed it. I order on line as I don’t drive and I would like to order sauce to have on hand, like I have done in the past with the Jiffy mix.

    This is DELICIOUS!!! My husband (who doesn’t care for a lot of “Mexican” food) said he wouldn’t mind having this frequently and he’d consider it a treat. Highly recommend!! Tip: I added a sprinkle of Tajin seasoning on the top with sour cream, it was next level!
