Heat oven to 350°. Cook ground beef over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, in 10-inch skillet until no longer pink (10 to 12 minutes); drain. Stir in all remaining filling ingredients. Reduce heat to low. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes; set aside.


Meanwhile, combine cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in medium bowl. Stir in buttermilk, butter and eggs just until moistened. Spread on bottom of greased 13x9-inch baking pan. Sprinkle with 1 cup cheese. Spread meat mixture evenly over cheese. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup cheese and olives. Continue baking for 8 to 10 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve with sour cream and salsa, if desired.
