Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow. (James 1:17)

Hamburger-Vegetable Pie

1 lb. hamburger meat

1 lb. pack of classic mixed vegetables

2 cans tomato soup

Mashed potatoes (lots)

Shredded cheddar cheese


Boil mixed vegetables and fry hamburger meat, stirring and mashing it into as small pieces as you can. Start boiling potatoes as well, so that by the time the other ingredients are done, the potatoes are ready to be mashed. Veggies and meat should be done approximately at the same time. Drain the vegetables, put them back into the pot you were cooking them in, add the meat and tomato soup and stir well. The base for your pie is ready. Take a large casserole dish (or two smaller ones) and put the mix you’ve just made into it. Mash the potatoes. Carefully spread mashed potatoes on top so that all the base is covered with about ½”. Sprinkle some shredded cheese on top and spread evenly. Place the dish in the oven and cook uncovered at 350ºF for 5-10 minutes or until the cheese melts.
