Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 packet Taco seasoning mix
- 8 ounces Tomato sauce
- 1 package Refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 1 cup Lettuce, shredded
- 0.5 cup Tomatoes, diced
- 0.25 cup Black olives, sliced
- 2 stalks Green onions, chopped
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray a muffin tin with cooking spray and set it aside.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
Stir in the taco seasoning mix and tomato sauce, then cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the mixture is well combined and heated through. Remove from heat and set aside.
Separate the refrigerated biscuit dough into individual pieces. Press each piece into the bottom and up the sides of the muffin tin cups to form a shell.
Spoon a heaping tablespoon of the taco beef mixture into each biscuit shell. Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese over the top of each one.
Bake the taco pies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuit dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Allow the taco pies to cool slightly in the muffin tin for 5 minutes, then gently remove them using a fork or spatula.
Top each taco pie with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, black olives, and chopped green onions.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
