Daddy's Delight #1 - Tamale Casserole

This is our very first Daddy’s Delight posting!
The original idea behind this segment of the blog was that Handy Harp would cook up one of the many recipes he knows and I would blog about it. Well, being the control freak I am in the kitchen, it turned out a little different. First I offered to do the preparing while he told me what to do… then I completely changed the recipe. I am laughing as I write this because I know it is totally true – I am a Kitchen Freak. It is kind of like a control freak, but just focused on the culinary aspect of life. So, this posting will still go under Daddy’s Delight because without his inspiration this dish would of never happened… I promise. . The original recipe did not involve onions or cheese and was not going to see an oven anytime in it’s lifetime. This dish is cheap, easy and is actually better than I thought it was going to be. I would say if you only have a few bucks and need some food, give this a try – you will most likely be surprised.
