Directions

There's something in me that just loves good, warm comfort food. And nothing screams comfort food like a heaping serving of pot pie. Here's one of my favorites that I clipped from Better Homes and Gardens.

1. In a skillet cook sausage, pepper, and onoin till sausage is no longer pink; drain. Add beans. tomatoes, tomato paste, wine sugar and ⅓ cup water. Bring to boiling. Reduce heat; keep warm.

2. Stir together flour, cornmeal, cheese, and baking powder. Add egg, milk and oil. Stir just until combined.

3. Transfer sausage mixture to a 12 x 7 and ½ x 2 inch baking dish. Drop cornmeal topping into mounds atop sausage mixture. Bake, uncovered, in a 400 degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until a tooth-pick inserted into topping comes out clean.
