Nacho Pie for a Quick & Easy Dinner!

Today I have a delicious and easy weeknight recipe. Nacho Pie, this recipe is so quick to put together and makes a tasty meal along with a nice salad on the side or maybe Spanish rice. The reason I suggest Spanish rice is because to me this dish taste similar to beef enchiladas. I like to make a lot of casseroles, but some people in my family, who I will not mention names do not like casseroles a whole lot. They do love quick and easy recipes like this one. The first time I made Nacho Pie there wasn't a single piece left in the pie plate. So that should tell you something. This would be perfect to take to a church or family potluck dinner just toss everything in, bake and its ready to go.

Yummy Good!

These are the ingredients you will need:
Ground Beef, Mexican Cheese Blend, Onion, 1 Packet Taco Seasoning, Tomato Sauce, Water, Sour Cream, Corn Tortilla Chips and Crescent Roll Dough. I accidentally grabbed the wrong cheese, so I used cheddar, but the Mexican cheese blend is so much better.

Preheat oven to 350
in large skillet brown beef and onion over medium heat till done, Drain any grease.

add taco seasoning,



tomato sauce and


water ( I usually just fill the tomato sauce can about 3/4 filled with water)


Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes - 10 minutes



grease a 9 inch pie plate with non stick spray. This is my favorite pie plate, I love the design.


Separate Crescent rolls into 8 triangles. Place each crescent triangle with points facing towards the middle into the pie plate. You might have to maneuver the triangle a bit at the end and turn some of them side ways, that's OK as long as the pie plate is covered completely.


Press onto bottom and up sides of plate to form crust. Seal perforations, it will look just like this.


Sprinkle 1 cup crushed Corn Tortilla Chips over crust.



top with meat mixture


Spread sour cream over meat


Sprinkle the cheese on top of the sour cream and remaining 1/2 cup crushed Doritos.


This is what it will look like with all the ingredients added.



Bake about 30 - 40 minutes or until cheese melts, pie is bubbly and crust is golden brown.


Cool about 10 minutes before cutting.

Top with a dollop sour cream, diced tomatoes and black olives if you like.
