Impossibly Easy Cheeseburger Pie Recipe

Here is the rewritten review: "I forgot the cardinal rule of trying out a new recipe: Always read reviews first! I followed the recipe exactly, except for adding a couple of minced garlic cloves. I realized it needed a bit of salt, even though I usually avoid it. The Bisquick mixture with milk and eggs turned out very runny. The final dish was somewhat bland, but a dash of ketchup helped. Although the Bisquick spread evenly, it tasted undercooked. The second time I made it, I reduced the milk to 1/3 cup and used 3 eggs. I layered half of the ground beef in the pie pan, then added cheese before adding the remaining meat. After baking for 20 minutes, I sprinkled more cheese on top and returned it to the oven to finish. I also remembered to add salt this time. It turned out perfectly! This dish has now earned a permanent spot in my meal rotation."

I have tried this recipe twice. The first time, my husband and I found it to be lacking in flavor. However, when I made it again last night, I decided to enhance it by adding extra onion, garlic, and sautéed fresh tomatoes from the garden. I also included pepper and a few dashes of Tabasco sauce. The result was a dish that was flavorful and absolutely delicious. This recipe is simple to follow, and by incorporating additional ingredients, you can customize it to your taste. I plan on making this for our church's upcoming drive-through meal giveaway, which will serve 100 people.

I followed the recipe instructions closely, with the only exception of incorporating 2 dashes of Tabasco and a minced garlic clove into the meat and onion mixture as it simmered. Since I utilized very lean beef, there was minimal excess fat to remove, so I omitted that step.

Oh yes! I sprinkled some garlic powder, added a hint of Worcestershire sauce, and the kids absolutely enjoyed it! Afterwards, I prepared another dish using smoked salmon seasoned with pepper. I cooked a red pepper and baby spinach in a pan, then layered them with green onions. I mixed southwestern style egg beaters with whole milk and it turned out fantastic! I topped both dishes with sharp cheddar cheese and used Jiffy baking mix. For a different variation, you can fill the pie pan with raw broccoli, microwave it, and then continue with the recipe. I also added bacon bits to that one.

This dish was simple and tasty once I added some extra ingredients. Originally lacking in seasoning, with only a hint of salt, I knew it needed a flavor boost to truly resemble a cheeseburger. To enhance the taste, I included garlic powder, onion powder, ground mustard, pepper, and ketchup. I paired it with fried pickles and a side salad.

I added a touch of powdered onion as my wife isn't particularly fond of fresh onions.

This dish is greatly enhanced if you enjoy pickles. I recommend taking a whole jar, chopping them up, and adding them to the mixture. I also included ketchup and mustard, which made it taste remarkably like a burger.
