Vintage Recipe Friday: Corn Tamale Loaf

I feel like the last Vintage Recipe Friday was pretty gross, and this one might be too. Sorry. But it cracks me up the weird and disgusting stuff that people used to (and still do) eat.

Corn Tamale Loaf
From Ladies' Home Journal, March 1967 

Heat oven to 375

You will need:
1 medium onion, minced
1 clove garlic, finely minced
1/2 cup cooking oil
1 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
1 3/4 cups hot chicken broth
1 1/2 cups diced cooked chicken
1 can (8 oz.) tomato sauce
1 tbsp. chili powder
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
3 eggs, beaten
1 can (17 oz.) cream style corn
1 tbsp. butter
Green onion for garnish
Olive slices for garnish

Saute onion and garlic in oil until tender. Mix with next eight ingredients and blend well. Pour mixture into well-greased 9" loaf pan; set in pan of hot water. Bake at 375 for one hour or until firm and brown. Heat corn with butter. Turn out loaf on platter; top with corn. Garnish with green onion and olive slices, if desired.

Serves six.
