Taco Pie

Description: Easy recipe for taco pie.
Sponsors:
This is an easy recipe that also allows you to make use of those
crumbs that accumulate in the bottom of the taco chip bags! (My
husband really loves taco chips, so maybe we end up with more
crumbs than your average household...)
1 pound hamburger
1 small onion chopped
taco seasoning or chili seasoning
1 cup sliced black olives
2 cups crushed taco chips
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Crust:
2 cups flour
3/4 cup of warm water
1 package of dry yeast (or 2 teaspoons bulk yeast)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup dry oatmeal
Cook hamburger, add onions and add taco seasoning or chili
seasoning to taste. Add olives and sour cream. Heat well.
Crust: Dissolve yeast in warm water, add remaining ingredients
and roll out to fit a large pie pan.
Sprinkle one cup of crushed taco chips over the crust. Add meat
mixture. Put remaining taco chips on top of the meat. Sprinkle
the shredded cheese on top of the chips.
Bake for 20 minutes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Note: If you would rather not use taco seasoning or chili
seasoning (due to problems with acid reflux or heartburn), I have
used catsup in the recipe. My husband and I laugh about it
because in one of those "you know you live in Wisconsin if"
things, one of the items is, "you know you live in Wisconsin if
you think catsup is just a little too spicy." Norwegians don't
seem to care much for really spicy food. My husband is not of
Norwegian descent, but I am...

Reader comment: Use a jar of chunky salsa instead of taco seasoning. The
salsa has less acid and has nice texture. Salsa comes in mild to hot, so you should be able to find one that fits
your "spice" gauge...Sandi
