Soft Beef Taco Pie

This recipe was passed on to me by a friend of mine.  Thank you Kelsie:)  I did make some modifications that the grandkids seem to really like.



BTW, if anyone is having trouble posting to my blog a friend of mine told me what you should do.  From Jaxson:)

Back to the recipe....

Ingredients:
3-4 large tortilla shells
1 lb. ground beef
2 minced cloves of garlic
1/2 cup minced combo of green peppers and onions, minced(for the kids)
1 package of Taco seasoning mox
3-4 Tbl. salsa
1 Jar Cheez Whiz or a Generic

Brown the meat with the garlic and the peppers and onions:

After the meat is browned drain it.  Add it back to the pan then add the taco mix, 3/4 water, and salsa:

Heat to a slow boil and lower.  Simmer for 10 minutes:

Get ready to make your pie.  Melt the cheese inside a bowl in the microwave for 2 minutes.  Stir every 30 seconds or so.


Place one tortilla in the bottom of a sprayed pie plate:

Add 1/3 of the meat mix:

Add another tortilla and meat, another tortilla and meat:

Add the fourth tortilla on top and put the cheese on top:

Spread it around:

Bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes:

I goofed on this one and only made two layers instead of three but I'm sure the kids will still like it:)

Serve hot and enjoy.  This recipe can be modified to suit your tastes.  Add more veggies or less.  Use a Taco, Burrito, or Fajita Seasoning packet.  The Cheez Whiz for my family is a must.
