Taco Pie

Taco pie.  Yum.  When you want a taco, but something slightly different, this is the recipe that you want to try.  It’s delicious.

Here’s how I make mine:

You can make this vegetarian if you use a product like Morning Star farms veggie crumbles.  This is how I make Liv’s  all the time.  Just sub in the crumbles for the meat.

Brown your ground beef….

Add in your taco seasoning mix…..

Chop half an onion and saute it with the ground beef.

Beat two eggs until very well combined.

Add one cup of milk to your eggs…..

Now add one can of chopped green chilies and one box of Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix.

Put the ground beef mixture in a well oiled or buttered 9 x 13 pan….

Pour your egg mixture over the top….

Cover with two cups of cheese….

And bake for 25 minutes in a 400* oven.

Glorious!

Now add your favorite toppings:  We love lettuce, onions, refried beans, tomatoes, avocados, salsa, and sour cream.  You can add anything you like or eat it plain, but either way it is absolutely delicious! 

Denton’s favorite is ranch dressing!  It is SO good!

You have to try this and let me know what you think!!  We love it.

    3 Ingredient Taco Seasoning Recipe

    I don’t buy things like taco seasoning anymore because I have all the ingredients on hand in my pantry.  I bet you do too!

    My base is only three ingredients.  1 tablespoon each of chili powder, cumin and garlic powder.

    That’s it.  You can add in anything else that strikes your fancy and it will only make it better in my opinion.  Onion powder, paprika, ground black pepper, oregano, crushed red pepper flakes, sea salt, cilantro.  The possibilities are endless.  Just make sure you have those first three ingredients and you are golden.

    This will be enough for up to two pounds of meat, but you can mix it in bulk and store it in an airtight container.
