Crushed corn chips offer a lively crunch to this yummy main dish from Margery Bryan of Royal City, Washington. "Cut into neat wedges, this pie is a fun, fuss-free way of serving tacos without the mess," she notes.

  • 1 cup crushed corn chips, divided
  • 1 unbaked pastry shell (9 inches)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
