Deep Dish Pueblo Pie

Submitted by Chef #lion11

"I like this recipe because it has just about everything I love in it. It came from a time when I was a vegetarian and wanted something different for dinner. This recipe can be made in a round crock pot as well as the oven. You can substitute light sour cream for regular and less fat cheese for regular cheese."

This is actually an old Rosarita brand recipe. I lost my original and was happy to find it here! I give it 4 stars for easy preparation! It is a good starting point, though I usually add browned beef or shredded chicken as well as omitting the onions. I also omit the tomato and use drained chunky salsa in its place. Top it off with cilantro.

This did not turn out as I had hoped. The sour cream curdled. The onions were not even close to done and there were alot of them! The avacado did not taste well in the layers. Maybe as a condiment on top would have been better. I only gave it a three because my 9 year old liked it. The rest of us did not.
