Recipe: Vegetarian Deep Dish Taco Squares

   This is a recipe that was given to me by my niece, Debbie. I have changed some of the ingredients to make it vegetarian, and it is delicious. This is something perfect to take to a picnic or covered dish dinner. Bet there won’t be any left to take home!

1 recipe for Vegetarian Taco “Meat” (above)

1/3 c. vegetarian sour cream (I use Sour Supreme, Better Than Sour Cream, by Tofutti)

1/3 c. Vegenaise

1/2 c. shredded cheddar veggie cheese

1 Tbsp. chopped onion

1 c. Bisquick baking mix

1/4 c. cold water

1 – 2 medium tomatoes, thinly sliced

1/2 c. chopped green bell pepper

   Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a square baking pan (8″x8″ or 9″x9″)

   In a bowl mix together the Sour Supreme, Vegenaise, veggie cheese, and onion; reserve.

   In another bowl mix the baking mix and water together until a soft dough forms.

   Pat the dough into the prepared pan, pressing the dough 1/2 inch up the sides of the pan. Layer taco “meat,” tomatoes, and green pepper in the pan. Spoon Sour Supreme mixture over the top. Sprinkle with paprika if desired.

   Bake about 25 – 30 minutes until edges of dough are light brown. Enjoy!
