Cheeseburger Pie


























Find it on Pinterest



Cooks Note: I have made this one several times, and it is really good. It is easy, it tastes JUST like a cheeseburger and it takes about 15 minutes to put together. I always wonder, who comes up with these things? Pickle juice? But hey, it works, so I won't question it. The kids love it of course and it is good served with baked fries. To make it a little healthier, you can use ground turkey, reduced fat crescents and LF cheese and I am sure it will be just as tasty. Enjoy!
