Taco Pie (TNT)
Taco Pie (TNT)
(The original version of this pie is from All Recipes website, a cooking/recipe website that I highly recommend if you love to cook and try new recipes!)
"A pre-baked crust of refrigerated crescent-roll dough is filled with a mixture of browned ground beef and taco seasoning layered with sour cream, shredded cheese, and crushed nacho chips. It is returned to the oven for about 10 minutes."
Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent rolls
1 pound ground beef (see Notes below)
1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
8 ounces shredded Mexican-style cheese blend (see Notes below)
1 (14 ounce) bag tortilla chips, crushed (note: I only used about 10 ounces of chips to crush and it was just the right amount--for us, anyway)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Lay crescent dough flat on the bottom of a square cake pan and bake according to package directions.
3. Meanwhile, brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the taco seasoning and stir together well.
4. When dough is done, remove from oven and place meat mixture on top, then layer with sour cream and cheese, and then top off with the crushed nacho chips.
5. Return to oven and bake at 350 degrees for about 10 to 15 minutes, or until cheese has melted.
Gail's Notes: I added some previously roasted, chopped sweet peppers and some chopped caramelized onions (about 1/4 cup of each) along with the ground beef as it cooked. I also added about half a cup of shredded cheddar to the top of the chips towards the end of baking, just until melted. Very good and I know for a fact I will make this again (and soon)!
