Mexican Dinner Aka Taco Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients

Crust
1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 1/2 cup yogurt or 1/2 cup sour half-and-half
1 egg
Filling
1 lb lean ground beef
1/2 cup onion, chopped
2 teaspoons chili powder
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups kidney beans, cooked (optional)
Toppings
chopped lettuce
diced tomato
grated cheddar cheese
sour cream
salsa
sliced black olives

Preparation

Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees. Grease and flour a 9\" or 10\" pie pan (not deep dish) or spray w/non stick cooking spray.
Crust:
Combine the crust ingredients, stir until blended, batter will be lumpy.
Pour into prepared pie dish. Spread batter thinly to within 1/4 inch of the rim - sometimes it likes to slide down, adding the filling will push it back up some.
Filling:
Brown the beef and chopped onion together then drain.
Stir in all the other ingredients, mix well then spoon into crust.
Bake for 20-30 minutes.
Let cool for few minutes, serve with your favorite toppings.
Note: The original recipe called for buttermilk, or plain yougurt, or sour half and half, I misread it the first time I made it and used sour cream, it worked so it's what I had always used, but I finally tried it with buttermilk and it was great.
