Ingrid Hoffmann’s Chipotle Tamale Pie My Way

Arlene Mobley - Flour On My Face
Chipotle Tamale Pie  recipe and back when I was a kid it was a special occasion when we had the chance to enjoy an ice cold coke-cola. I may be giving away my age when I tell you that I can remember sucking down an ice cold coke out of one of those cute little green, six ounce bottles.
