Make Something Monday ... Creamy Beef Fold-Over Pie

I needed a quick meal for the boys and I came across one I printed out weeks ago. LOL sorry I'm just proving Rick right, and I hate that. I have this habit of printing out recipes, bringing them home and then they sit there. I'm trying very hard to actually put them to work so here I'm actually proving myself right ... LOL take that Rick! Ok before you ask yes that is a HUGE pump of Ketchup, I have brought up a boys that love ketchup and I've even got Roy turned into a ketchup fan. Sad I know but heck it gets Cole to eat things if you put a little ketchup on the side. Ok back to the recipe of the week, I found this one on Betty Crocker's website. I actually get weekly emails from them and this was one of the featured recipes. Super yummy and easy! Which is my main goal on most days! Check it out, Creamy Beef Fold-Over Pie.

P.S. One more fun thing, I was watching Chopped a new show on the Food Network where the chefs are given mystery items that they need to make a meal in 30 minutes. One was a cream of mushroom soup and one of the chefs made the comment that it is for "home cooks" that don't know how to cook. On that note I wanted to tell him where to shove his soup and come to my kitchen after working and drop offs/pick ups and see what gourmet meals he pulls out of his rear oh yeah on a budget. Stepping off the soap box :).

Start your engines!

Helper #2 cutting up onions for me.
Brown the meat and add a can of Mushroom Soup.

Add a bag of mixed veggies.

Add a tbsp of ketchup

Start the dough of Bisquick (or generic version) and boiling water.

Make a ball of the dough and kneed it 4 or 5 times.

Roll out like a pizza, put on a pizza pan or I love my stone.

Mix the meat mixture with the onions.

Put meat mixture in the middle. Oops I think I had a little too much.

Fold the dough over. Helper #1 showing off.

Yup Rick's right (shh don't tell him) I'm a messy cook.

Bake for 27 min and then put cheese on top.

Melt the cheese and let cool.

Serve up the boys! Jeez I should have given them bigger pieces.
