Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 1 packet Packet of taco seasoning
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 piece Premade pie crust
- 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Canned black beans
- 0.5 cup Frozen corn
- 0.5 cup Salsa
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 2 tbsp Chopped green onions
- 2 tbsp Chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Drain any excess grease.
Add the taco seasoning packet and 1/4 cup of water to the cooked beef. Stir well and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens.
Unroll the premade pie crust and press it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any overhanging edges if necessary.
In the bottom of the pie crust, spread half of the shredded cheddar cheese to create a base layer of cheese.
Spread the cooked taco meat evenly over the cheese layer in the pie crust.
Top the taco meat with the canned black beans, frozen corn, and salsa, spreading each layer evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese on top of the layered ingredients.
Place the pie dish on a baking sheet (to catch any drips) and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pie crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the taco pie from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.
Top the pie with sour cream, green onions, and chopped cilantro (if desired) for garnish before serving.
Slice into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy your Taco Pie in Pie Crust!
