Easy Taco Pie
Are you looking for a delicious and EASY keto breakfast that your kids will love?
You must try my Easy Taco Pie! It also makes great leftovers!
HOW TO MAKE EASY TACO PIE
To make my Easy Taco Pie even easier, I brown the ground beef, combine the ingredients, and place them in the skillet the night before. In the morning, all I have to do is pop the skillet in the oven for an easy breakfast or brunch.
EASY TACO PIE FASTER
If you want to make Easy Taco Muffins instead of Taco Pie which shortens the cooking time, you can bake the pie as individual muffins. Grease a 12-well muffin pan and follow the Easy Taco Pie recipe as written through Step 4. Then transfer the mixture to the greased muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake for 10 to 13 minutes, until golden and puffed. Allow to cool slightly in the pan, then transfer the muffins to a serving platter and serve warm.

TESTIMONY OF THE DAY
“Every morning when I get up I thank God for Maria and Craig Emmerich !
I will never be able to convey my thanks for showing me the way to lose weight.
I tried every diet possible, I was in TOPS (Take Off Pounds Sensibly)at the age of 12, I tried WW, and a few other well known diet programs. None of them ever worked long term. I’d lose a few pounds and gain it right back.
Wish I could send you a huge bouquet of flowers Maria, but once again I will just send you my thanks and deepest gratitude! I don’t have many pictures of myself at 420+ pounds. So I have to go way back to find pictures to share. Hit 200 pounds this morning. I have to say it feels unbelievable!” – Felicia
