Easy Taco Pie

Taco Pie - Easy Life Meal & Party Planning - easy to make taco pie quite tasty with the combination of spicy meat, cheese, and sour cream inside a hot pie shellTaco Pie has been a family favorite for decades. I found the recipe in a local community cookbook from the early 80's listed under their "International" section (which makes me chuckle - not quite the exotic fare I was thinking of for this section).  You will discover this easy to make taco pie quite tasty with the combination of spicy meat, cheese, and sour cream inside a hot pie shell. In fact, I like it better than taco shells. 


Even though my kids are now into their twenties this is almost always their meal of choice for their birthday celebrations.  It also heats up well the next day. In fact, whomever is having a birthday usually gets a whole pie to take home with them. Give it a try - your friends and family will love it!
