Taco Pie



This was good, I adapted this recipe from here Tina at Mommy's Kitchen called this Nacho Pie but I switched some things around and we had a fab dinner.

Ingredients
1 Pillsbury Pie Crust
4 Handfuls (yes I know, very precise) Tortilla Chips
1 lb ground beef
1/2 onion sliced
1 can Rotel (original flavor)
1/2 can refried beans (heated)
3 Tbsp Sour Cream
2 Tbsp Water
1 Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
Salt and Pepper to taste

Serves 6

Ok are you ready for how easy this is?

Preheat oven to 350*

Roll out your pie crust into a pie tin. Take your handfuls of tortilla chips and squeeze them into little pieces and place in the bottom of your pie.


Take your ground beef, onions, salt and pepper and cook over medium (or medium high) heat until cooked through (about 10-12 minutes). Add 1 can of Rotel to the beef and onion mixture, mix together. Pour the mixture into the pie tin on top of the tortilla chips.


In a bowl take your refried beans, water and sour cream and mix together until combined.
Pour on top of the pie and spread out so it covers the pie. Add 1 cup cheese on top and place in the oven for 30 minutes or until cheese is melted and pie crust is golden.


This turned out great! The spiciness from the Rotel was PERFECT it didn't overwhelm the dish at all which was nice. The refried beans and sour cream mixture pulled it all together. We served this with some broccoli (hey you gotta get your greans!) You should definitely make this. It's easy and tastes great!

Have a great Saturday and God Bless!

ps it's ok to be pleased that my picture taking skills are getting better (I know they still aren't great, but I'm learning!)
