Cheeseburger Pie Jamie Deen Food

JAMIE'S CHEESEBURGER PIES

Steps:

• *Frozen puff pastry dough should sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and preheat the grill.
• Mix the ground beef, onion, steak seasoning and seasoning sauce (using your hands is the most efficient way to do this). Form into 5 small flat patties. Grill the hamburgers to medium-well. (You may also pan-fry the patties.) Remove from the grill and top each burger with a slice of cheese of your choice.
• Roll the puff pastry sheet to flatten slightly. Cut it into 5 relatively even rectangles.
• Cover each burger with a piece of puff pastry and wrap it around the bottom, pinching all of the edges to seal. Place on an un-greased baking sheet, pinched side down.
• Whisk together the egg yolk and 1 teaspoon water to make an egg wash. Brush each wrapped pastry with the egg wash. Bake for about 15 minutes, until the puff pastry is nice and brown.

MEXICAN CHICKEN - PAULA AND JAMIE DEEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 13 by 9-inch pan with the cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, stir together the 3 kinds of soup and the tomatoes. Stir in the chicken.
• Layer the tortillas and the chicken mixture in the pan, beginning and ending with tortillas.
• Sprinkle the cheese over the casserole and bake for 30 minutes.
• Enjoy!

HAM & CHEESE PARTY PLATTER LEFTOVER BREAKFAST CASSEROLE

Steps:

• While putting away the party leftovers --
• Grease 13x9 pan with butter; spread bread/bun cubes over entire bottom of pan (use more or fewer buns if using a larger/smaller pan).
• Sprinkle ham pieces and cheese slices over bread; set aside.
• Mix eggs and milk until frothy, add several squirts of mustard, beat and then pour over the ham, cheese, bread cubes.
• Customize the toppings to the eaters' choices. (Dad likes everything, but Mom doesn't want tomatoes, and DS would rather kiss a rattlesnake than eat onions, so let's make everyone happy!).
• Add another layer of leftover cheese; sprinkle sausage dices artfully (or optionally). Olive slices can go on now, too or any other little tidbits of really tasty niblets.
• Top pan with foil; chill until morning or leave on the counter if you're a brave soul.
• Next morning - pop pan in oven, set to 350*. Bake for 20-30 minutes, remove foil, bake for another 3-5 minutes until top is bubbly and "set".
• VARIATIONS: Use your favorite cheese, try turkey instead of ham.
• Great way to use up the cheese and sausage tray that was forgotten in the fridge!
• EXTRAS: black or green olives.
• Par-cook: stuff from the veggie tray (cauliflower, broccoli, carrots).
• DELISH: add a few smidgens (or a LOT!) of the veggie dip to the egg/custard bowl -- or drop on top in cheerful dollops. Oh yum!

BACON-TACO CHEESEBURGER MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Toast bread crumbs.
• In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except 3 slices of bacon, mixing well.
• Press meat mixture into a 9 by 5 by 3-inch loaf pan, or shape into a loaf and place on a rack in a broiler pan. Place 3 slices of bacon on top of meatloaf. Bake for 40 minutes. I used the Flavorwave Oven.
