Chile Rellenos Bake

I got a subscrition to the Betty Crocker maganize. I can never resist those little recipe books you often find at the checkout. This season was all the things you can make with Bisquick. I wanted to try something a little different so I opted for this chili bake. I love Chicken Pot Pie and this is like a Tex-Mex version. Ok, so it's a lot different... but it's a similar idea. A wonderful combo of meat, cheese and bread. It came out to 10 points which is not too bad for dinner. Ingrediants: Serves Eight
1 pound lean ground beef
1 chopped onion
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
