  • Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped (1 cup)
  • 2 cups cubed peeled sweet potatoes or butternut squash
  • 1 jar (16 oz) thick & chunky salsa
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1 can (15 oz) Progresso™ chick peas (garbanzo beans), drained
  • 1 pouch (6.5 oz) Betty Crocker™ Cornbread & Muffin Mix
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon roasted sunflower nuts, if desired

Steps

  • 1
    In 4-quart Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender.
  • 2
    Stir in sweet potatoes, salsa, water and cinnamon. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover; simmer 20 to 25 minutes or until squash is tender. Stir in corn and beans.
  • 3
    In medium bowl, mix cornbread mix, milk and 1 tablespoon oil. Stir in nuts. Drop dough by large spoonfuls onto vegetable mixture. Cover; simmer about 15 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of dumplings comes out clean.

  • Sweet potatoes with darker-colored skins are generally more moist and flavorful than the lighter ones. Two medium sweet potatoes or half of a small butternut squash will give you 2 cups of cubes.
  • This pot pie is almost complete all by itself, but a salad of melon slices and orange segments drizzled with honey adds a finishing touch. For extra flavor, stir a small amount of cinnamon into the honey.
