Keywords: Meat, < 60 Mins, Oven
Servings: 6
Yield: 1 pie
Ingredients:
- 1 1/4 pounds hamburger meat
- 1/2 cup onion, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup green pepper, finely chopped
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 1 can (14.5 ounces) French style green beans, drained
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 can (16 ounces) refrigerated dinner rolls (for pie crust)
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure it’s hot and ready for your pie.
-
Cook the Meat: In a large skillet, cook the hamburger meat over medium heat until it’s browned. Break the meat into small crumbles as it cooks. Add the finely chopped onion and green pepper to the skillet, cooking until the vegetables are tender and the meat is fully browned.
-
Drain the Mixture: Carefully drain the excess fat from the skillet, ensuring that the meat mixture is left relatively dry.
-
Add Sauce and Beans: Stir in the tomato sauce and drained French style green beans. Season the mixture with salt, ground cumin, and paprika. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for about 5 minutes, so the flavors meld together beautifully.
-
Prepare the Pie Crust: While the meat mixture is simmering, take your refrigerated dinner rolls and press them evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a pie plate to form a crust. Press the dough firmly to ensure it adheres well.
-
Mix Cheese and Egg: In a small bowl, beat the egg and then mix in 1 cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese. This mixture will be poured over the pie crust for added richness and flavor.
-
Assemble the Pie: Pour the cheese and egg mixture over the bottom of the prepared pie crust. Next, carefully spoon the meat and vegetable mixture over the cheese layer, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese over the top of the meat mixture, and finish with a light dusting of paprika for a touch of color and flavor.
-
Bake: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
-
Serve: Allow the pie to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy the savory, cheesy goodness that everyone will love!
