Mom's Famous Meat Pie



I have to give credit where credit is due. This was a family favorite all growing up and continues to be a favorite in my family too. My Mom said that the original recipie actually cam from my Aunt Diane Behiling and that she got it from a Crisco can (is that true Diane?) I think my recipie could be altered since the original but this is the way I do it. You were originally supposed to make the crust from scratch (using the Crisco) but I'm all abou the Pillbury Dough Boy doing the hard work for me when it comes to pie crust. Just open the box, cut open the package and unroll!!

1 Pillbury Refridgerated Pie Crust
1 lb. Ground Beef
1 small onion chopped or 1/4 cup dehydrated onions
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 TBSP Sugar
1 tsp Oregeno
1 can drained Green Beans
1 can Tomato Soup

Brown hamburger and drain. Add onions, salt, pepper, sugar, oregeno and stir in. Add beans and soup. Pour in pie crust and top with 2nd pie crust. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes with a square of tinfoil covering the top. Remove tinfoil after 20 minutes and cook for 15-20 minutes longer (checking regularly for crust to be browned
My kids love this one!!
