Cheeseburger Pie
January 8, 2019
I remember growing up and wanting to get my cheeseburgers from a fast food joint. If you grew up in a home like mine, fast food burgers came far and in between. If we had groceries at home, there was absolutely no reason the go by food from somewhere else. Either you ate what was prepared or just be hungry. Had I realized the best burgers are homemade, I probably would not have pouted at my rejected request! If you listen to Troy Sr., we have company all of the time. I am always working on recipes that are great for large groups and real crowd pleasers. Low and behold my cheeseburger pie. It is a very simple recipe and ideal for serving multiple people. It is comprised of the most basic ingredients formulated to be a little slice of deliciousness.

- 3 pounds ground turkey
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced

Preheat oven to 375° F. Par-bake pie shells 20 minutes. While pie shells are baking, sauté ground turkey and onions until completely cooked. Drain any excess liquid. Add Velveeta cheese slice and salt and pepper. Stir until the cheese is melted and well combined into meat mixture.
