Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 cup prepared cornbread stuffing cubes
  • 1/2 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup chunky salsa, divided
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Heat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease 8 cups of a standard muffin pan.
  • Put the cornbread stuffing cubes in a large bowl and gently crush them into smaller pieces. Add the ground beef, black beans, egg, onion, chili powder, cumin, salt, and 1/4 cup of the salsa.
  • Mix gently with your hands or a fork just until everything is combined. Avoid packing the mixture tightly, which can make the muffins dense.
  • Divide the mixture among the 8 prepared muffin cups, pressing lightly to shape each portion. Spoon the remaining 1/4 cup salsa over the tops.
  • Bake for 20 minutes. Sprinkle the shredded Monterey Jack over the muffins, then bake for 5 to 10 minutes more, until the centers reach 160°F.
  • Let the muffins rest in the pan for 5 minutes before removing and serving.

For the best texture, use prepared stuffing cubes rather than finely ground crumbs, and mix the beef only until combined. If your salsa is especially watery, drain off excess liquid before measuring so the muffins hold their shape.
