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.
