Turkey burger pie pictures

Here are some pictures of my Turkey Burger Pie! I'm kind of proud of it because I didn't burn it.

It was not a hit, I admit. It was lacking something or a few things. I added a few tablespoons of salsa and some seasoning but it still didn't have enough taste. IF I were to make this again, and I probably won't, I'd add more salsa, more cheese, and more seasoning.

Turkey Burger Pie

How easy could this be? And I even have all the ingredients on hand!

• 1 pound lean ground turkey
• 1 cup chopped onion
• 1 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup egg substitute
• 1 cup fat-free milk
• 1/2 cup reduced-fat biscuit/baking mix
• 
  
• In a skillet over medium heat, cook turkey and onion until meat is no longer pink; drain. Transfer to a 9-in. pie plate coated with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle with cheese. In a bowl, combine egg substitute, milk and baking mix; mix well. Pour over cheese. Bake at 400 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.

Vegetable Pizza

How easy could this be? From Campbell's Meal Mail, gotta love those!

Garden Vegetable Pizza

1 pkg. (10 ounces) Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry Shells

1 tbsp. vegetable oil

1/2 lb. small broccoli flowerets (about 1 1/2 cups)

4 1/2 oz. mushrooms, sliced (about 1 1/2 cups)

1 medium green OR red pepper, chopped (about 3/4 cup)

1 small onion, chopped (about 1/4 cup)

3/4 cup Prego® Traditional Italian Sauce or Prego® Organic Mushroom or Tomato & Basil Italian Sauce

1 cup shredded mozzarella or Swiss cheese (about 4 ounces)

Thaw the pastry shells at room temperature for 40 minutes or until they’re easy to handle. Heat the oven to 400°F. Lightly grease 2 baking sheets. On a lightly floured surface, roll the pastry shells into 7-inch circles. Put the pastry circles on the baking sheets. Using a fork, prick the pastry circles thoroughly. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden. Leave the pastry circles on the baking sheets, and place the sheets on wire racks. Set aside. Heat the oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli, mushrooms, pepper and onion and cook until the vegetables are tender-crisp. Spread the Italian sauce over the pastry circles to within 1/2-inch of the edge. Divide the vegetable mixture among the pastry circles and top with the cheese. Bake for 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Serves 6.
