Mom's Favorites: Cinco de Mayo

Ok, so you are thinking ... what if Mom is crazy and doesn't actually want something cooked on the grill. Perish the thought I know! Well, here's another neat trick - use her own recipe on her. If it's a family favorite, then certainly it's one of her favorites or why would she cook it so much? 

So, in honor of my mom and Cinco de Mayo...you get one of her recipes. I don't know where she got, if she made it up or what but it's really easy and really good!

Taco Pie

Ingredients:
1 lb. ground meat             1/2 c. chopped onion            1 envelope taco mix
4 oz. green chilis              1 1/4 c. milk                           3/4 c. bisquick
3 eggs                               2 tomatoes, sliced                1 c. shredded cheese

Directions:

  1. Grease a pie plate.
  2. Cook beef & onion until brown and drain.
  3. Add taco mix.
  4. Spread in pie plate.
  5. Top with chilis.
  6. Beat milk, bisquick and eggs until smooth.
  7. Pour into pie plate.
  8. Cook at 400 for 25 minutes.
  9. Add the cheese and tomato with 10 minutes left.
See...it's so easy you could call it easy bake pie...well I bet it tastes better than what came out of an easy bake oven. Just sayin!

As always, have fun!
