Tried something different for tea tonight and thought I'd share - pretty easy to make and YUM, nice family meal..

TACO PIE

Ingredients:
60g butter
2/3 cup milk
1 package taco seasoning mix - as hot as you like it (we're just mild here..)
2 1/2 cups mashed potato flakes (you could also use left over mashed potatoes and omit the butter and milk)
500g minced beef
1 chopped onion
1/2 cup salsa
1 cup shredded lettuce
1 medium tomato, chopped
1 cup grated cheddar cheese, 

sour cream, optional

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees. In a medium sauce pan, melt butter. Add milk and 2 tablespoon taco seasoning. Remove from heat and add potato flakes until incorporated. Press mixture into the bottom of a pie dish (and up the sides).
2. Bake for 7-10 minutes until it just BARELY turns golden brown.
3. In a medium skillet, cook beef and onions until beef is browned and cooked through. Drain. Add Salsa and remaining taco seasoning. Cook until bubbly.
4. Pour into crust. Bake for 15 minutes, or until crust is golden brown.
5. Let cool for 5 minutes. Top with cheese, lettuce, and tomatoes. Cut and serve with sour cream.

Happy Cooking!
