Taco Pie

This is a perfect meal for a family of 4-6... it's a fun twist on taco night!





You'll need:

1 can diced tomatoes (14.5 oz)
6 flour tortillas
1 lb ground beef 
1 onion
1 red pepper, chopped
1 small can green chilies 
1 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/2 C cheddar cheese

1. Brush a 9" pie plate with olive oil, and spread 1 spoonful of the diced tomatoes on the bottom. Then place 4 tortillas so that it creates the bottom layer (they will overlap.)

2. Now cook the meat mixture! In a large skillet, brown the beef, and add the onion, pepper, and chilies. Drain the fat, and add the chili powder and cinnamon (I know, cinnamon?) Then stir in half of the remaining tomatoes, and cook for about 2 minutes. Pour onto tortillas in pie plate. 



3. Cut the remaining tortillas into strips, and layer over the pie. 


4. Sprinkle with cheese, and the rest of the tomatoes.


5. Bake at 400 degrees, uncovers, for about 20-25 minutes. 


Top with cilantro for that extra touch! Serve with sour cream/guacamole!
