I grew up eating cheeseburger pie made from the recipe on the back of the Bisquick box. It has been years since I had it and when I found this recipe, it looked so delicious to me. I like any recipe that has been made a little bit healthier by adding vegetables. I think my Little B even had seconds (amazing for him). I found the recipe on parents.com. I made some slight changes, so you can either use the recipe below, or just use the one at the link above.
CHEESEBURGER-ZUCCHINI PIE
Ingredients:
3/4 pound lean ground beef (I used ground turkey)
1 medium onion, peeled and chopped
1 medium zucchini (about 6 ounces), shredded
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup shredded Italian cheese blend (again, I just used what I had on hand, colby jack)
1/2 cup heart-healthy reduced-fat biscuit mix (I found one the Jiffy makes, and it's a little less expensive than Bisquick)
1 cup milk
2 eggs
1 medium onion, peeled and chopped
1 medium zucchini (about 6 ounces), shredded
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup shredded Italian cheese blend (again, I just used what I had on hand, colby jack)
1/2 cup heart-healthy reduced-fat biscuit mix (I found one the Jiffy makes, and it's a little less expensive than Bisquick)
1 cup milk
2 eggs
Directions:
Heat oven to 400°. Spray a 9-inch pie plate with nonstick cooking spray.
Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat. Crumble in ground meat. Stir in onion and zucchini and cook for 6 minutes, or until cooked through, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper. Spread beef mixture into the prepared 9-inch pie plate. Sprinkle the cheese over the top.
In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the biscuit mix, milk and eggs until smooth. Pour mixture over beef mixture.
Bake at 400° for 25 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool for 5 to 10 minutes. Cut into 8 wedges and serve.
