Servings 8

Ingredients
  

crust

  • 2 1/4 cups baking mix (I used Bisquick)
  • 2/3 cup milk

filling

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 teaspoon taco seasoning
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (I used a jack, colby combo)

Pico de Gallo

  • 1/2 cup diced plum tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • juice and zest from 1 lime
  • Kosher salt to taste

optional garnish

  • sour cream, hot sauce, chipotle peppers

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425. Mix together baking mix and milk. Gently press a thin layer of baking mix into an 8-inch cast iron pan. Bake 8 to 12 minutes until crust is set and golden brown. Check about halfway through and remove excess dough if necessary to thoroughly bake.
  • While crust bakes, prepare filling. Cook beef and seasoning in a medium-sized skillet over medium heat until thoroughly cooked. Add meat to baked crust. Top with cheese. Return to oven for about 5 minutes until thoroughly heated and cheese melts.
  • Prepare pico. Add all pico ingredients together in a small bowl. Stir and allow to set to blend flavors. Top cooked taco pie with pico and garnish with sour cream, zest, hot sauce, chipotle peppers if desired.
