Ye Ol' New Beef Pot Pie

Ye Ol' New Beef Pot Pie


1. Preheat oven to 375°F.

2. Grease a 9-inch square, glass baking/casserole dish (I use Crisco or butter).

3. Prepare the filling as follows:

4. Season ground beef with salt and pepper.

5. Brown ground beef with peppers and onions in 1 Tbsp olive oil over med heat, then drain grease.

6. Transfer beef mixture to a large bowl.

7. Add cooked potato, mixed vegetables, peas, gravy, sour cream.

8. Stir until well-blended. This is where you want to check consistency and taste for seasonings. If you are happy with the thickness of the filling, don't add the breadcrumbs. If it needs more flavor, then add the Kitchen Bouquet or salt-n-pepper to taste.

9. Prepare the crust as follows: In a med-large bowl whisk together Bisquick,garlic, salt, pepper, basil, egg, milk and ranch dressing. If it's too thick to be poured over filling, then add a bit more milk, until the desired consistency.

10. Spoon the filling into the greased 9-inch sqare casserole dish, and spread so it's evenly distributed. Add the pieces of cheddar cheese on top of filling.

11. Pour the crust batter over filling and spread evenly.

12. Bake for 20 minutes, then check for over-browning of the edges. If you notice that, put 1 - 2 inches of foil around the edges so they don't burn.

13. Continue baking for an additional 20 - 30 minutes.

14. Let pie rest for 10-15 minutes before cutting and serving.

15. This goes well with a tossed salad.
