Hamburger Pie

So one of my all time favorite recipes is Hamburger Pie. It is super easy and it's one of my go to winter comfort foods. It's a recipe that I make about once a month. It's a great meal to make for dinner then take to lunch for the next day or two since it reheats well.

Hamburger Pie

Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef (or turkey)
1 onion
1 can of tomato soup
1 can green beans, drained (or mixed veggies)
4 cups mashed potatoes
Velveeta cheese

Instructions:
1. Boil water for your potatoes.  Peel and cut the potatoes into chunks.  Add to boiling water.  Boil until tender.
2. While the potatoes are boiling, chop the onion.  Brown the ground beef and onion.  Drain fat.  Place ground beef and onion into casserole.  

3. Add tomato soup and green beans.  Mix together.

 

4. At this point, your potatoes should be about done.  Drain the water and mash your potatoes.  You can add butter, sour cream, milk, or whatever else you like.  I'm simple and do butter and milk.
5. Top casserole with mashed potatoes.  (I top mine with ~4 cups but you can do more or less.)

6. Bake casserole at 325F until the peaks of the potatoes begin to brown, about 20 minutes.  Top with slices of Velveeta cheese.

7. Continue to bake until cheese is melted, about 10 minutes.

8. Let cool and Enjoy!
