How to Make Taco Pie in Your Skillet

Everybody loves tacos, but not everybody knows all the different ways you can enjoy them— and we’re not talking about different fillings! Our current favorite variety is taco pie, also known as taco casserole or inside-out nachos. It combines everything we love about the simple Tex-Mex dish into a skillet meal that’s super delicious and filling. Sarah Carey of Martha Stewart’s Everyday Food shows us how to make it.
