Easy Hamburger Pie

Saturday Mar 29, 2008

Submitted by Lorene
Serves 6

1 lb. extra lean ground beef ½ large onion
6 large potatoes 1 can tomato soup
1 can corn, drained 2 tbsp butter
½ c. milk  

Peel your potatoes & put them on to boil. While they’re cooking, dice up the onion & cook it & the hamburger in a deep frying pan. Once the hamburger & onion is completely cooked, add the can of corn & can of tomato soup & mix well. Put the hamburger mixture into a pre-greased casserole dish & set aside. Heat your oven to 425°F.

Once the potatoes are cooked (20 – 30 minutes), mash them up & add however much butter, milk, salt & pepper that you like in your mashed potatoes. You could also add garlic. Once your mashed potatoes are done, spoon them evenly over the top of the casserole. Dab the potatoes with a bit of melted butter & put your dish in the oven for 20 – 25 minutes until the soup is bubbling up the side.

Ali’s Famous Enchilada Casserole

Saturday Mar 29, 2008

Submitted by Cokechic
Serves 6

2 lbs. ground beef 2 taco seasoning packets
Fresh Pico de Gallo Extra thin soft corn tortillas
1 can Campbell’s Fiesta Nacho Cheese soup 16 oz. shredded Mexican style cheese

1. In a stock pot, brown beef with pico de gallo. Add taco seasoning & the amount of water called for by the seasoning packet. Add soup. Stir until the beef has a thick creamy sauce, simmering for about 10 minutes on medium heat.
2. Layer the rest like a lasagna. In a 9″x13″ pan, place a single layer of tortillas. Spoon in half of the meat mixture & cover with half of the cheese. Add another layer of tortillas, the rest of the meat, & then the rest of the cheese.
3. Bake at 350°F until cheese is melted & bubbly. Cut into squares & serve with sour cream, guacamole, & fresh pico de gallo if desired.

Chef’s Note: If your grocery doesn’t carry fresh pico, you can make it yourself by combining finely diced tomatoes, white onions, cilantro, jalapeno, & lime juice. Or just dice up the tomatoes & onions & simply use that.
