Well, we were suppose to go to dinner last night. The weather invited us to dinner at home instead. Other people on the road should just stay home and give me the road all to myself. We got about 2 inches of hail on top of the inch of snow so it's making for an interesting driving experience. Very slushy.
So I thawed some hamburger and pulled something out of thin air. Dont know what to call it, hamburger pie? I made a normal crust, put it in a pie dish. Sauteed red onions, browned the hamburger added some herbs. Cracked a bunch of eggs, mixed that with Bisquick mix and grated some pepperjack cheese. All of this went into pie dish, and then I covered it with dough. Baked it and ate it. I served with green veggies.
I was happy with the mix. I was happy with my crust. I just think maybe it was too much crust. Maybe next time just do a single crust and not a double, also if I did just the bottom crust, it could bake for maybe 6 minutes less.
I ventured out yesturday and braved the idiot drivers trying to drive their dinky little cars up and down steep hills, to the restaurant supply store to get my big plastic, lidded container so that I can make artisan bread. I think I may start that today.

  1. Valerie: I make something very similar with on top crust. My kids (Chris and Stephanie) just love it (they mentioned it on Christmas). I have fixed it for my husband and he didn’t seem to think it was a big deal, but we (meaning my kids and myself) just love it. You can really put all kinds of different things in it….. I love the hamburger, onion, mushroom and lots and lots of cheese kind!!Happy cooking!!

  2. Cheese makes everything better huh? It was good, and my mom has also made something similar but I didnt have her recipe so I just winged it. I can see the endless possibilities with this! Mushrooms would be awesome in this! The leftovers were good for breakfast!
