For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a can of drained and rinsed black beans or corn to the meat mixture. A dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of fresh cilantro, or a drizzle of hot sauce make excellent toppings. Feel free to substitute ground turkey or chicken for the ground beef. To prevent the crust from becoming soggy, blind bake the pie crust for 10 minutes before adding the filling.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salsa, bell pepper, and onion. Season generously with salt and pepper. Gently fold in the shredded cheese. Set aside. (5 minutes)
03
StepHeat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until it is evenly browned and no longer pink. This should take approximately 8 to 10 minutes. Drain off any excess grease. (10 minutes)
04
StepStir in the taco seasoning mix and cook for another minute, allowing the flavors to meld. (1 minute)
05
StepSpread the cooked meat mixture evenly into the unbaked pie crust, ensuring it covers the bottom completely. (2 minutes)
06
StepCarefully pour the egg and cheese mixture over the beef, making sure it distributes evenly. (1 minute)
07
StepBake in the preheated oven until the quiche is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. This will take approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, you can cover the edges with foil. (50 minutes)
08
StepRemove from the oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving warm. (10 minutes)
