Quiche...

Enjoy!

It sounds like the impossible cheeseburger pie ( from the bisquick box). Obviously w/out the bisquick. I'm am sure to try this one. Maybe adding some chopped onion when frying the burger.

PS whats the role of the mayo? does it bind the ingredients?

Hey mermaid. I would guess the mayo is for flavor, and to up the fat content. I dont' think it would act as a binder.
The recipe calls for onion, so go for it!!! Hope you enjoy it.

This looks delish! I'll be making it for dinner tonight!

8 oz shredded cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Brown beef and onion in a large skillet, drain, and add to crumbled bacon. Mix well, breaking up any large clumps. Press meat and bacon mixture in to the bottom of a casserole or deep dish pie pan.

In a seperate bowl combine cream, mayo, eggs, cheese, garlic powder and salt and pepper. Stir briskly until mixed well. Pour evenly over the top of the meat "crust". Cook in pre heated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until top is browned and firm. Remove and let cool 10 minutes before serving.

I made this the other day and it is very good. Very easy to make and it lasts a few days.
My non low carbing dh ate some . I thought he might not like it but he said "This stuff is pretty good." He put ketchup on top.
Then he had a second helping and was about to get a third when I said"hey thats for my diet" lol
I ate it for breakfast the last 2 days. Its all gone now. I might try experimenting and adding more veggies to it next time. Maybe green pepper. mushrooms.

This sounds good!--Why not add green beans to it? Mom used to make a hamburger pie when we were growing up-it was kind of like this and it had green beans in it. It had scoops of mashed potatoes on top too and browned in the oven...good!--So we don't put the mashed potatoes on the top....it will be great. I will be trying this soon.

OMG! made this for dinner tonight it is a definate hit with me and my non LC DH. Thank you, was so nice to have something to do with ground beef beside burgers or meatloaf.

2 thumbs up!! :thup: :thup:
