I cooked this for dinner last night & it was so good! You just cook it all in a skillet, pour it into a baking dish & plop corn bread mix on top . My alterations are in italics. I only baked it for about 20-25 minutes too. There is enough left over for lunch today. I hope the corn bread ontop isn't getting soggy :? .
