pepper and reserve. Chop remaining bell peppers (about 1/2 cup each).
Cook pork, sausage, onion and garlic in 4-quart Dutch oven over
medium heat, stirring occasionally, until pork is no longer pink;
drain. Stir in chopped bell peppers, broth, basil, cilantro and
ground red chiles. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 30
minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir corn, tomato, squash and olives
into meat mixture; cook another 15 minutes.
Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Prepare Cornbread Topping. Pour meat

carefully spread to cover, sealing to edge of dish.
Arrange reserved bell pepper slices on top. Bake until topping is
