Then butter or use Pam on the bottom of the casserole dish..(i use glass)..set aside.

Filling:
Brown the beef in a skillet with onions, garlic, and seasonings...Drain fat and add salsa and the 2 slices of jalapeno into the pan with the meat and let simmer for about 5 minutes...spread bottom crust into the bottom of the baking dish...Add the meat filling into the dish....Slice the cheese into 6 slices and add on top of the meat mixture.

Top Crust:
mix together the remaining Bisquick mix and milk until soft and smooth...use a rolling pin to spread out the dough and put on top of the filling until it covers the entire baking dish...

Bake in 400 degree oven for about 10 minutes...or until lightly browned on top and cheese is sizzling inside the pie...let cool for 5 minutes and ENJOY!!!
