Cheeseburger Pie



1 lb. lean ground beef
1 onion, chopped
1/2 bell pepper, chopped
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 cup shredded Cheddar Cheese
1/2 cup Bisquick mix
1 cup milk
2 eggs

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Spray a pie pan, 9 x 1 1/4", with cooking spray.  Cook beef, onion, peppers, salt and pepper in a skillet until beef is done.  Drain.  Spread in pie plate.  Sprinkle with cheese.  In a bowl mix Bisquick, milk and eggs using a fork or whisk until blended.  Pour over the meat.  Bake 25 minutes or until knife inserted in the center comes out clean.  Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Comment:  Sometimes the best recipes are those that we've simply forgotten.  I remember making this dish years ago for my kids and we all loved it.  It's simple, quick, and delicious. You can top it with anything you like... pickles, mustard, etc. or do as I did and top it with sour cream.   I did, as usual, make a change.  I added the bell peppers.  I also used a cake pan instead of a pie plate but only because it has a device that runs around the bottom which separates the pie from the pan.  Give this one a try, again.  I don't think you'll be disappointed.
