We use to eat cheese burger pie when the girls were young. We all got older, they are adults now & we stopped using Bisquick. This night I had a hankerin' for the 'ole cheese burger pie, but all we have is fresh from the garden ingredients & no cheddar cheese. Oh my, what's a mom to do? Well, we loved it! On a side note, I don't really measure seasoning or cheese, I'm a firm believer in whatever makes you happy! Lord, bless this meal for anybody who makes it!
