In separate bowl, combine corn (drain off some of the liquid, butnot all), cornmeal, baking soda, salt, oil, milk, eggs, and salsa. Pour half of this mixture in crockpot that has been sprayed with Pam.

Layer cheese, onion, garlic, green chilies, and ground beef on top of cornmeal mixture. Cover with remaining cornmeal mixture. Cover. Cook on high 1 hour and on low 3 1/2-4 hours, or only on low 6 hours.
