Cheeseburger Pie

This is a good, quick main dish and it doesn't cost a lot. This quantity is for one pie (4-6 servings)

Ingredients:
1 prepared pie crust (you can make your own; I use Pillsbury)
1 lb ground beef or turkey
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1/2 cup soft bread crumbs
salt and pepper, to taste

Topping: 1 egg, 1/3 cup milk, 1 cup grated cheese

Mix the beef/turkey with the tomato sauce and bread crumbs. Spoon into pie crust. Mix together the topping ingredients and spread over the pie. Bake at 375 for about 35 minutes.


The nice thing about this dish is, most of the ingredients are on sale this week at Kroger or Meijer. The cheese and ground beef is on sale at Kroger; if you choose to use ground turkey Meijer is selling the one-pound rolls this week for $1 each. I got my pie crust from Kroger back when they had that great deal before the holidays---I bought several boxes and froze them. Those of my children that tried this dish really liked it; the others made themselves Easy Mac (also bought on sale this week!).
