Fresh or canned corn can be used in this recipe. If using canned corn, be sure to drain it well before adding it to the casserole.
5. Salsa:
Salsa adds a spicy kick to the casserole and also provides a depth of flavor.

We recommend using a Mexican blend of shredded cheese for this casserole, which typically includes a mix of Monterey Jack, cheddar, and Colby cheeses.

Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess fat.
In a separate bowl, prepare the Jiffy corn muffin mix according to package instructions.
In a 9x13 inch baking dish, spread the cooked ground beef evenly on the bottom.
Next, layer the black beans, corn, and salsa on top of the ground beef.
Pour the prepared Jiffy corn muffin mix over the top of the casserole, spreading it to cover all the ingredients.
Sprinkle shredded cheese on top of the cornbread layer.
Bake the casserole for 25-30 minutes, or until the cornbread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
