Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb Ground beef
  • 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese For topping
  • 1/2 cup Chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup Chopped bell pepper
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 1 package Refrigerated pie crusts Typically contains 2 crusts
  • Salt and pepper To taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C).
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and brown it, breaking it apart as it cooks, for about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until they are soft.
  4. Stir in the cream of mushroom soup and the milk, mixing well. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  5. Line a pie dish with one of the pie crusts and pour the beef mixture into it. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and cover with the second pie crust, sealing the edges.
Baking
  1. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
  3. Allow the pie to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy.

Notes

Feel free to swap out ground beef for ground chicken or turkey for a lighter option. You can even use lentils or chickpeas for a vegetarian version. Consider adding crushed crackers or breadcrumbs on top of the cheese before baking for extra texture. Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for 2 months. Reheat in the oven or microwave.
