Easy Taco Pie
Yield: 8 servings
Serving Size: 1/8 pie

This low carb meat and egg pie is ridiculously easy to make and incredibly delicious - a perfect weeknight dinner. Use your favorite taco seasoning and adjust the heat to your liking. Kid-friendly!

Ingredients

1 lb ground beef
3 tbsp taco seasoning (or one packet taco seasoning)
3/4 cup water
6 large eggs
1 cup heavy cream
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (I used Cabot Chipotle Cheddar for an extra kick!)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F and grease a glass or ceramic 9-inch pie pan.

Brown ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until no longer pink, about 7 minutes, breaking up clumps with the back of a wooden spoon.

Add taco seasoning and stir until combined, then add water, reduce heat to medium low and cook a few minutes longer until sauce is thickened.

Spread beef in prepared pie pan.

In a large bowl, combine eggs, cream, garlic, salt and pepper. Pour over beef.

Sprinkle with shredded cheese and bake 30 minutes, or until centre is set and cheese is browned.

Remove and let sit 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Top with sour cream, chopped tomatoes and chopped avocado, if desired.
