How to Make Southwest Taco Pie
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Place pie crusts in a 9-inch pie plate.
- Partially bake pie crust for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet, brown the ground beef and chopped onion over medium-high heat until cooked through. Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir in taco seasoning mix and 1/2 cup of water according to package directions. Cook for 2 minutes.
- In a small bowl, combine refried beans and ½ cup of taco sauce.
- Spread half of the seasoned meat mixture evenly in the bottom of the pie crust.
- Top with half of the bean mixture.
- Sprinkle ¾ cup of cheese over the bean layer.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
- Top with the remaining meat mixture, bean mixture, and remaining ¾ cup of cheese.
- Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until heated through.
- Let cool slightly before topping with remaining taco sauce and serving with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and sour cream.
