#497 - Taco Squares

(by Shirley McNevich)

1/2lb. ground chuck
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 cup sour cream
1/3 cup mayo
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 TBSP chopped onion
1 cup Bisquick
1/4 cup cold water
2 medium tomatoes, sliced
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
tortilla/taco chips for topping

In a skillet, cook the ground beef and stir/brown with the small chopped onion, salt and pepper. Drain the meat. In a bowl, stir together sour cream, mayo, cheese and 1 TBSP chopped onion--set aside. In a separate bowl, mix Bisquick and cold water until dough forms a ball. Grease a square baking dish and press the Bisquick dough on bottom and part way up the sides of the dish. Layer the ground beef, then sliced tomatoes, then green pepper--spoon the sour cream mixture over the entire top. Season to your taste. Bake at 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oven, place a handful of taco chips in your hands and crush them over the top. Serve with salsa as a side dish.
