    Tips for a Perfect Bean Taco Pie

    Here’s the part where I provide you with the guidance you didn’t know you needed. Take into consideration these tips for a perfect Bean Taco Pie!

    Tip 1: If you want an extra kick, then serve your Bean Taco Pie with some toppings like Taco sauce, tortilla chips, sour cream, black olives, or shredded lettuce.

    Tip 2: Make sure you prepare (chopping, dicing…) your ingredients beforehand. Preparing everything ahead of time will lower the stress level when it is finally time to cook this delicious dish.

    Tip 3: If you are not a fan of meat, try substituting it with chicken or ground turkey. It is easily adaptable to your preferences.


    Frequently Asked Questions:

    Can I store leftovers?

    Sure you can. Place your leftovers in an airtight container, then pop it in the fridge. It should last you a couple of days.

    Can I skip the beans?

    As I said, this recipe is incredibly adaptable. Although Beans are an important ingredient in the recipe, you can skip them and add extra corn instead.

    Can I prepare the filling beforehand?

    Absolutely! Prepare the filling ahead of time then pop it in the fridge. But you may have to bake it a bit longer since you are dealing with cold ingredients.
