Q is for Quick Cheeseburger Pie



This recipe was made on July 30th 2020 and it was pretty good actually. 

I have never made a pie like this before but can see how this would be a great addition to monthly food rotation. 

The pie crust was not that hard to make and while it is baking in the oven the next steps for browning the beef can be completed. Once the pie crust is completed and the beef cooked it is pretty much mixing everything together and baking a little longer. I also would be curious if this could be made like a night before? 
This is what the pie looked like before cooking.

The things that I would change with this recipe maybe add some more veggies to it. Maybe not during baking but maybe add the option to put tomatoes or shredded lettuce on top like you would a burger. Or possibly some bacon crumbles at the adding cheese step. 

When I have some kind of mix like this I always want to fill it with as many items as possible. That could also be something like finely dicing up squash or zucchini, which would also be cooked while the beef is browning. 

I did love the dill pickles and the juice that was added. It gave it a nice zip.

I think I might just have to add this to this week's dinner list.
