Crazy Crust Taco Pie Recipe

  Beef

Ingredients:
Crazy Crust:

1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 cup shortening
1/2 cup sour cream
1 egg (large)

Filling:

1 lb. hamburger
1 med. onion, chopped
1 pkg. taco seasoning mix - OR -
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. chili powder
1/4 - 1/2 tsp. Tabasco sauce
1 can (15-16 oz.) refried beans
1 can (14-16) tomato sauce (seasoned "special" is best)

Topping:

shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican style)
shredded lettuce
chopped tomato
taco sauce or salsa

Directions:
Crust: Mix dry ingredients together. Cut in shortening; stir in sour cream and egg. Pour into greased and floured 9 or 10" pie pan. (Batter will be lumpy and isn't at all stiff). Spread thin on bottom and thick up sides (it tends to slide back down a bit - use the filling to hold it up).

Filling: Brown hamburger in a large skillet; add onion. Drain off fat. Stir remaining ingredients into hamburger mixture and heat through. Spoon into prepared crust. Bake at 425 F for 20 - 30 minutes until crust is deep golden brown. Sprinkle with shredded cheese a minute or two before removing from oven.

Sprinkle toppings on before cutting, or let everyone put their own on at the table. Makes 6 good sized servings.
