Instructions:
-
Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Grease an 8×8-inch square baking pan (2-inch depth) with cooking spray or a thin layer of oil to ensure the dough doesn’t stick.
-
Cook the ground beef: In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat, following the instructions on the taco seasoning envelope. This typically involves browning the meat, draining excess fat, and adding the seasoning mix with a bit of water. Stir well to combine and let it simmer for a few minutes until fully cooked.
-
Prepare the dough: In a separate bowl, mix the Bisquick baking mix with the cold water until smooth. This will form a soft dough. Spread the dough evenly into the prepared greased baking pan.
-
Add the beef mixture: Once the dough is evenly spread, pour the cooked ground beef mixture over the dough. Use a spatula to spread the beef out evenly over the dough layer.
-
Bake the sandwich: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges of the dough are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Add cheese: Immediately after removing the pan from the oven, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the hot beef mixture. Allow it to stand for 1-2 minutes so that the cheese melts perfectly.
-
Serve: Once the cheese is melted, slice the Baked Taco Sandwich into portions. Serve with fresh sour cream, shredded lettuce, and chopped tomatoes for a refreshing crunch.
This simple yet flavorful Baked Taco Sandwich will quickly become a go-to meal for busy days. It’s packed with protein, a comforting blend of flavors, and is ideal for sharing with family and friends.
