I've made a couple versions of Cheeseburger Pie this year. I pulled ground beef out yesterday, but a quick check of my freezer showed the pie crust I thought I had was gone. I had a tube of crescent rolls in the fridge, so I went with those.
This comes together really quickly. Brown the ground beef with some minced onion, season to taste, add in ketchup, mustard and cheese. Pour it into a pie plate, top it with some more cheese (you can never have enough cheese!). Pop the crescent rolls on top, sprinkle it with sesame seeds and bake.
My son who is super picky devours this, and it's hearty enough to satisfy my husband after a long day at work. I top mine with some shredded lettuce and tomatoes.
