Preheat your oven to 350F and add olive oil to a large saucepan over medium heat.
Add corn and carrots. Sautee for 2-3 minutes or until softened, and add zucchini. Sautee for an additional minute.
Add ground beef, paprika, onion powder, salt, and garlic powder. Stir to incorporate and cook until the meat has browned, then stir in tomato sauce.
Fold in 1 cup of sour cream and cheddar cheese until incorporated. Remove from heat and set aside.
Combine corn muffin mix, cream corn, ½ cup sour cream, milk, vegetable oil, and an egg in a bowl. Stir to incorporate. Your batter should be smooth and lump-free.
Coat a baking pan with cooking spray, add the ground beef mixture, then top with your batter. Bake for 50 minutes at 350F. Remove when the crust is golden brown.
Serve and enjoy :)

Notes
The corn muffin mix crust is a key component of Jiffy tamale pie. Make sure to prepare it to the right consistency, not too thick or too thin. It should resemble the texture of traditional tamale dough.
Remember, cooking is a creative process, and this is a great recipe to experiment so feel free to make this Jiffy tamale pie uniquely your own!
