Macho Nacho Pie

Macho, Macho Man......la la la la la la la laaaaaaaaa....... :-)

Yes, this is the song that went through my head as I made at this savory pie.....

Such a yummy pie....super easy peasy to make and full of great flavor!  Don't be afraid to jazz up this pie to your liking.  I added corn to the recipe but later thought about also adding chopped green peppers or even a little salsa or some diced green chilies. 

Go ahead and be a "Macho Man" and make this recipe into your own!
