It's 3/14... Pi{e} Day! The perfect day to make Taco Pie! It is a delicious meal your family will love, and you won't have any leftovers either! It's a delicious twist on taco's that will soon be in regular rotation in your menu planner!
This taco pie uses crescent dough as a base for the pie crust. It's both convenient and easy to use. But also a bit thicker and sturdier than a traditional pie crust and holds up well to the meaty and cheesy filling.
Feel free to play around with the filling a bit to suit your own tastes, but I have found that keeping it pretty simple works best for my family. Crunch Corn Chips, Taco Meat, beans, sour cream, cheese and more crunchy chips.
Let's get cooking!
