Simple single-serve meat tacos are a thing of the past now thanks to Buzzfeed's recipe for the gluttonous taco pie that creatively turns the Mexican street fare into a deep dish meal. The recipe creatively fills a savory pie up with all the traditional toppings found inside a taco.
The taco pie begins with a homemade pie shell that baked and filled with cooked ground beef, onions and taco seasoning. Then the staple taco garnishes are layered in overflowing portions starting with refried beans, slices of processed cheese, lettuce, shredded cheese, tomatoes and a large dollop of sour cream. Rather than enjoyed by hand, this taco pie is cut and served in slices and eaten with a fork.
