Bakin’ With Bacon and King Teddy

Happy Saturday Bacon Lovers!   Here I am in the Castle Baconia kitchen sharing a recipe with you!!

You know I’m always trying to find something totally yummy that involves bacon for you to try.    Well I searched high and low and found this which I think you will enjoy.    It’s just a little bit different because the “shell” of this dinner pie is MEAT – not pastry!    Ready?

“Meat Shell Bacon Potato Pie”

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground chuck or lean ground beef (90% lean)
• 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted, divided
• 1/4 cup chopped onion
• 1 large egg
• 1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• Pinch pepper
• 2 cups mashed potatoes
• 4 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled (no surprise here but I used SIX strips of bacon – – – -!!!  The more the merrier I say)
• 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Directions

• In a large bowl, combine beef, 1/2 cup soup, onion, egg, bread crumbs, parsley, salt and pepper; mix well. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9-in. pie plate. Bake at 350° for 25 minutes; drain.
• Combine potatoes and remaining soup in a bowl; mix until fluffy. Spread over meat crust. Sprinkle with bacon and cheese. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes. Let stand for a few minutes. Cut into wedges.

 

See?   Different but really no unusual ingredients – just put together in a different way using the ground beef as a “pie shell”.     This is really tasty.    Trust me!

Put the ingredients on your shopping list – I promise you and your family will LOVE it!

It’s good to be King…..!!!!
