Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 1 oz package Taco Seasoning Mix
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 cup pinto beans rinsed and drained
  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup green bell pepper diced
  • 1/4 cup onion diced (optional)
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 1 cup shredded cheese cheddar, colby-jack, or mexican blend
  • 1 7 oz package cornbread mix
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • Toppings:
  • shredded lettuce tomatoes, salsa, green onions, sour cream, shredded cheese, chips

Instructions

  • Spray ramekins with no stick cooking spray and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. I used 9 oz size ramekins and this recipe made 6.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Brown ground beef in a medium size dutch oven or skillet. Drain grease. Stir in taco seasoning packet, water, and beans. Divide the mixture evenly between the ramekins.
  • Divide the red and green peppers over the meat. Top with salsa, then cheese.
  • Mix together the cornbread package as instructed. Mine use 1/3 cup milk and 1 egg. Combine until smooth. Divide mixture evenly over the taco mixture, about 2-3 tablespoons on each.
  • Bake about 20-25 minutes, or until light golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven. Place on a dish for serving and add the choice topping ingredients around the taco pie. It can be served in the ramekin or cool about 10 minutes, run a butter knife around the edge, and remove pie from the ramekin.
