Taco Pie

== Ingredients ==
* 1 lb ground beef
* 1 medium onion, chopped
* 1 pkg. taco seasoning mix
* ¾ cup water
* 1 (16 oz) can refried beans (I use fat-free)
* 1 (8 oz) jar taco sauce, divided
* 1 baked 9-inch pastry shell (I use all-ready pie crust, although you may use frozen crust or make your own)
* 1 cup (8 oz.) shredded cheddar cheese, divided
* 1 cup crushed corn chips (I use Fritos™)
== Directions ==
# Cook ground beef and onion in a skillet until meat is browned, stirring to crumble meat.
# Drain. (I add onion after beef is cooked and drained to limit amount of fat absorbed by onion)
# Add taco seasoning mix and water, stirring well.
# Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
# Combine refried beans and ⅓ cup taco sauce.
# Spoon half of bean mixture in bottom of pastry shell.
# Top with half of meat mixture, half of cheese and all of corn chips.
# Repeat layers with remaining bean mixture, meat mixture, and cheese.
# Bake at 400 °F for 20–30 minutes.
# Serve with shredded lettuce, chopped tomato, sour cream (if desired) and remaining taco sauce.
