No taco shells are needed for enjoying the great taco flavor of this easy main-dish pie.

Ingredients

1 pound Lean ground beef
1 Medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
1 envelope (1.25 ounces) taco seasoning mix
1 can (4.5 ounces) chopped green chiles, drained
1 cup Milk
2 Eggs
1/2 cup Original Bisquick® mix
3/4 cup Shredded Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese (3 ounces)
 Salsa (any variety)
 Sour cream, if desired
 Substitution :
 For a zippier flavor, chop a jalapeño chili and use it instead of the green chilies.

Preparation

1. Heat oven to 400ºF. Grease 9-inch pie plate. Cook ground beef and onion in 10-inch skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until beef is brown; drain. Stir in seasoning mix (dry). Spoon into pie plate; top with chilies.

2. Stir milk, eggs and Bisquick mix until blended. Pour into pie plate.

3. Bake about 25 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake 8 to 10 minutes longer. Cool 5 minutes. Serve with salsa and sour cream.

Cook's Notes

Serve this dish with fresh pineapple chunks, vegetable sticks and tall glasses of lemonade for a refreshing meal. Special Touch: Top it like a taco! Pile slices of this zesty pie high with shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, sliced green onions and sour cream.
