I made this during a week when I tried a bunch of new recipes and this is the only one that made Ben's "re-do list" which meant it was worth adding to our list. It was really good!!

- 1lb lean ground beef
- 1 small onion chopped
- 1 package of taco seasoning
- 1 can chopped green chiles
- 1 cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup bisquick mix
- Shredded monteray jack cheese
- Sour cream, if desired

Directions:
- Grease pie plate
- Cook beef and onion in skillet, drain.
- Stir in seasoning mix (no water)
- Spoon into pie plate, top with chiles
- Stir milk, eggs and bisquick mix until blended and pour on top of mixture
- Bake about 25 minutes at 425, sprinkle with cheese and back another 8 minutes.
- Serve with salsa and sour cream if desired.

I also add in corn on top of the chiles.

Don't let the longer than my normal ingredient list surprise you, it is very easy!
