My mom always made the best cheeseburger pie, and when I stopped eating red meat I always craved this recipe. Finally, I got adventurous and created my own Vegetarian Cheeseburger Pie! I use Boca Meatless Ground Burger, but I'm sure any soy artificial hamburger would work. Quick and easy! The ingredients listed also make the pie reduced fat.
Ingredients:
2 cups vegetarian ground beef (equivalent to 1 lb)
1/2 cup sweet onion, diced
2 tablespoons flour
1 tablespoon vegetarian worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup egg substitute
1 cup low fat cottage cheese
1 cup low-fat cheddar cheese
1 frozen 9-inch deep dish pie shell, thawed
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Set frozen pie crust on counter to thaw.
3. Spray non-stick skillet with cooking spray.
4. Heat frozen imitation burger in skillet with onion powder until heated through.
5. Add flour and Worcestershire sauce, stirring until evenly coated.
6. Remove from heat and set aside.
7. In a small bowl, fold cottage cheese into egg substitute.
8. Layer into pie crust: 1/3 cheddar cheese, 1/2 of meat mixture, 1/2 of egg mixture, 1/3 cheddar cheese, 1/2 of meat mixture, 1/2 of egg mixture, remaining cheddar cheese.
9. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is set.
