Taco Pie

I don't know how I've lived 41 years and haven't heard of this deliciousness. My kids devoured it. My husband and I couldn't stop eating it, along with the horchata I made. Yum. I use refrigerated pie crusts because of lazy. I’m sure you could throw in some pinto beans and  substitute chicken for the beef (slow cooked in salsa and taco seasoning). I look forward to experimenting! My family of 6 ate 1 1/2 pies. Thank you, website I got this from but can't remember which one. Thank you. Serves 4.
