- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1 sweet onion
- 1 lb. ground beef
- salt & pepper
- 1 packet of taco seasoning
- 1 can of fat free refried beans
- 1 can of black beans
- 1 can of drained corn
- 1 package of Kraft® Finely Shredded Cheese
- 2 cans of Pillsbury Corn Biscuits
- 1 egg beaten
- First, you will need to cut your onion into strips. I cut my onion in half and then cut into strips. In a large skillet add the olive oil and place over a medium high heat. Once the oil is hot add your onions and sauteé for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
- Add your ground beef, season lightly with salt and pepper. Break-up the ground beef into small pieces and brown. Once the meat has browned, remove excess grease with a spoon and discard. Stir in the taco seasoning over medium heat.
- Add the refried beans, black beans and corn. Let this mixture come to temperature and the remove from heat.
- Lightly flour a clean dry surface and roll out your first corn biscuit. Place about a 1/4 to a 1/3 of a cup of the taco meat mixture in on the rolled out biscuit and top with a generous helping of Kraft® Shredded Cheese.
- Then with a pastry brush, brush on a bit of egg wash along the edge of the biscuit dough. Fold over and seal with a fork.
- Place on a baking sheet and brush the top of the hand pies with the egg wash. Repeat with remaining biscuits.
- Bake in a 350˚ oven for 14-15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes.
