Bacon Cheeseburger Pie

Bacon Cheeseburger Pie . . . all the flavors of a cheeseburger, but eaten in slice form. An easy family friendly dinner recipe!

I am always on the lookout for new dinner recipes that don’t require a lot of prep time. This cheeseburger pie is a new favorite. I’ve made it twice in the last month, and everyone in my family loves it!

Truth be told, no one in my family likes cheeseburgers because they don’t like American cheese. So of course for this pie I topped it with cheddar, and they gobbled it right up.

I made my pie crust from scratch, but if you use a pre-made pie crust, this dinner is really quick to throw together. I even used the Hormel bacon bits, so I don’t have to cook the bacon. You can use bacon slices if you prefer.

The first time I made this, I used ketchup and mustard in the filling. The second time around, I used barbeque sauce instead of mustard, and we thought it was much more tasty. The smoky flavor of the barbeque sauce compliments the bacon just perfectly!

Ingredients :

• 1 unbaked pie crust
• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 small onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup Hormel real bacon bits (or 5 slices of bacon cooked and crumbled)
• 1/3 cup Panko bread crumbs
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 1-2 Tbsp barbeque sauce
• 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 tsp ground pepper
• 1 egg
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)

Instructions :

1. Cook ground beef and onion in a large skillet till meat is brown. Drain any fat. Stir in garlic, bacon, bread crumbs, ketchup, BBQ sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and pepper. Heat through and spread in the bottom of the pie crust.
2. Whisk together the egg and milk; pour over the meat mixture.
3. Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes or till crust is light brown.
