We tried this one just last night. It's soooooo good! I'm working three jobs now so my hubby cooked it...what a love! He added a packet of enchilada seasoning (sauce) to it instead of taco seasoning (as suggested at the bottom of the recipe) and it was OUTSTANDING. Can't WAIT for leftovers tonight! LOL! I hope you all enjoy it! It comes out more like chili than a pie--but it's sooo tasty and very filling. The full feeling lasted me for several hours. Taco Pie 1 pound lean ground beef 16 ounces fat free refried beans 1 cup salsa 2 cups iceberg lettuce -- shredded 2 large tomatoes -- chopped 1 cup cheddar cheese, lowfat or fat free -- shredded 1/3 cup sour cream, light In a large nonstick skillet, cook beef over medium high heat 6 to 7 minutes, or until browned, stirring frequently. Drain off excess liquid. Stir in beans and salsa, breaking up the mixture with the back of a spoon. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer 5 minutes, or until well combined and heated through, stirring frequently. Remove skillet from heat, scrape down sides with a spatula and spread the mixture evenly. Arrange lettuce, tomatoes, cheddar cheese and sour cream in concentric circles on top of the beef mixture and serve immediately. Makes 6 servings, each serving provides: 341 Calories; 18g Fat (48.4% calories from fat); 24g Protein; 20g Carbohydrate; 5g Dietary Fiber; 62mg Cholesterol; 684mg Sodium. For a more authentic 'taco' flavor, you might want to add a package of taco seasoning mix to the meat when you are browning it. (Steve added the seasoning after draining the excess fat off and rinsing the meat.) Enjoy! Brenda

I am definitely going to try this soon! Sounds good. I am stuck again, weight does not want to move. Maybe I need to eat more? Who knows...lol...you take good care my beautiful friends. You are both a blessing (Fran and Bren) and my day would not be the same without chatting with you two! My daughter moved back in with her baby, so that is good news. So far so good.
