Monday Night Mexican Pizza Bake

My Mondays start with the best intentions: another day for great possibilities. But after a long day, often outside, my motivation is reserved for curling up in the white, comfy chair. My master chef plans seem exhausting, not inspiring. We’ve all been there. But if you have a family, like many of you do, cereal can’t be the answer for dinner. Here’s a very quick meal you can make with your fresh Wagyu ground beef and doctor-up any number of ways.

Wagyu Beef Mexican Pizza

After browning the Wagyu ground beef I added taco seasoning, opting for a low sodium option and a non-restaurant chain brand: there really is a difference in taste and it’s worth an extra dollar or two. With the heat on low, I worked in two generous dollops of cream cheese and stirred until the cream cheese was evenly distributed with the meet. I added a can of diced tomatoes. Your tomatoes can also have the peppers, chilies, and jalapeno, but I’m not a fan of spice so ….

TIP: Drain much of the liquid from the tomatoes before adding them to the ground beef.
Coat the casserole pan with cooking spray, and add a sheet of pastry dough (how marvelously convenient!), spread the Wagyu ground beef evenly over the pastry, add the tomatoes, with or without an assortment of chilies, top with fresh, Amish grown tomatoes, and bake.

When saw the dough rising and starting to brown around the edges, I added Mexican Cheese, returned the dish to the oven to melt the cheese, and then set the oven to broil to give the cheese a nice golden color.

This was quite tasty, and easy to make, and is easily dressed up with sour cream, guacamole, Mexican rice, and a salad.
