I've really been into pot pies lately. I've made Pizza Pot Pies and Spaghetti and Meatball Pot Pies - both were great! This time we are doing Taco Pot Pies!
OMG - these were really good and a lot of fun to eat. These are easy to customize to each family members taste. We topped the pot pies with our favorite taco toppings - lettuce, tomato, sour cream and a little more cheese. This was a nice twist to our usual taco night. I wonder what our next pot pie will be......
Taco Pot Pies
(Printable Recipe)
1 lb ground beef
1 packet taco seasoning
2/3 cup water
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup salsa
4 (1oz) slices cheddar cheese
1 can refrigerated pizza dough
4 large ramekins
lettuce
tomato
salsa
sour cream
shredded cheese
Preheat oven to 425.
Cut 4 circles of dough about one inch larger than ramekin or bowl.
In a large skillet, brown the hamburger meat. Drain fat and return meat to skillet. Add taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Spray ramekins with cooking spray. Place 1 slices of mozzarella in each ramekin. Divide taco meat between ramekins. Top taco meat in each ramekin with 2-3 Tbsp of black beans and finally with 2 Tbsp of salsa.
Spray the outside of the ramekin with cooking spray, then stretch a round of dough across the top and let hang over the edge.
Bake for 15 minutes until dough is golden. Invert each pot pie onto a plate and lift off the ramekin.

Okay... I had to think there for a second, but I see now. You make it with crust on top, then flip & voila... the bowl is on bottom. Love this idea!
I live in West Texas where the Tex-Mex food abounds and this looks amazing. I have always used flour or corn tortillas but this pizza dough sounds great. Thanks!

This really is cute, and I'll bet it is fun to eat :)
Wondering if I could make a good pizza dough using masa so it would taste like a corn tortilla.
