Impossible Taco Pie Recipe
Description
The Impossible Taco Pie Recipe builds a hearty base of lean ground beef browned with taco seasoning blended into drained tomatoes and green chiles. This meat mixture is spread evenly in a deep-dish pie plate and topped with shredded cheddar cheese to provide a creamy, melted layer. A mixture of Bisquick, milk, and eggs is poured over before baking at 400ºF. The heat sets the egg batter into a golden, firm crust that holds the filling together for neat slices. The combination of spiced beef, melted cheese, and a fluffy crust adds texture contrast and comfort-style flavor to the dish.
Baking until the center is fully set and golden on top ensures the pie slices cleanly. This recipe serves well as a warm main dish for dinner or casual gatherings where taco-flavored dishes are favored without assembling individual tacos. Its sliceable form makes serving easier and leftovers more manageable.
Leftover pie stores up to three days in the refrigerator, and the calories per serving are estimated from dividing the pie into eight slices. Nutritional content varies depending on ingredient brands and quantities, so exact dietary analysis should be consulted with a professional if needed.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef lean
- 1 envelope taco seasoning 1 ounce
- 10 ounces tomatoes drained, brand Rotel
- 10 ounces green chiles drained, brand Rotel
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- 1/2 cup Bisquick Mix
- 1 cup milk
- 3 large egg
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400º Fahrenheit. Spray a 9" round deep dish pie plate (or cake pan) with cooking spray.
- Using a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until the beef is no longer pink. Drain off any fat. Add in the taco seasoning and drained Rotel. Mix well and heat through. 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef, 1 envelope taco seasoning, 10 ounces Rotel tomatoes & green chiles
- Spread the beef mixture in the bottom of the prepared pie plate. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top. 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- In a small bowl, whisk together the Bisquick mix, milk and eggs. Stir well to make sure it is completely mixed. Pour evenly over the beef and cheese. 1/2 cup Bisquick mix, 1 cup milk, 3 large eggs
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the middle of the pie is set and the top is golden brown. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Store any leftover pie in the refrigerator for up to three days to maintain freshness.
- Calorie estimates assume the pie is cut into eight slices; actual calories may vary by ingredient brands.
- To check doneness, ensure a knife inserted in the center comes out clean before serving.
