INGREDIENT NOTES:

GROUND BEEF:

• I use ground beef in the beef taco pie recipe. We could also prepared it with minced pork, turkey, or chicken.

TACO SEASONING:

• I use store-bought seasoning by properly checking its label so that it does not contain any sugar or starch. You can also make it at home by mixing chili powder, cumin, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper.

EGGS:

• The egg is the backbone of this recipe. It gives structural support as well as cohesiveness and a nice flavor to beef taco pie.

HEAVY CREAM:

• I use heavy cream because of its high fat content which will set the base more quickly. We would replace heavy cream with cream (coconut)
  also; it will work in the same way. You can also use whole milk also, but because of its less fat content than heavy cream; it takes a little time to set the base.

SHREDDED CHEESE:

• We would use any kind of cheddar cheese like Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack or sharp cheddar.

GARLIC:

• Fresh crushed garlic enhances the flavor of this beef taco pie.
