  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can green chiles (4 oz)
  • 3 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 3/4 cup water

  • 1 cup refried beans
  • 1 cup queso quesadilla cheese

How To Make taco pie

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a 9-inch pie plate.
  • Step 2
    Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. About halfway through the browning process, add the onion.
  • Step 3
    Reduce the heat to low and add the garlic and green chiles. Cook for a minute while stirring. Add the taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 5-10 minutes.
  • Step 4
    Place two tortillas in the bottom of the pie plate. Spread the refried beans over the top. Spoon the seasoned taco meat over the refried beans and top with another tortilla. Sprinkle evenly with both cheeses.
  • Step 5
    Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese melts and the taco pie is heated. Top with chopped tomato, chopped cilantro, and minced jalapeno.
