Pinto Bean Pie

Bouddica talks about her kids being beans in a pie. Then in my last Carnival of the Campfires recipe I made the comment that I would take requests. Well Bou being the smart alec that she is said she wanted a bean pie. So as an obedient blog offspring I found this:

Pinto Bean Pie

  • 1 lb ground beef (cooked and drain)
  • 1 cup onion (chopped)
  • 1 cup green pepper (chopped)
  • 1 can of whole tomato
  • 1 can of pinto beans
  • 1 cup of bisquick
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup of milk

Cook beef, onion and green pepper then drain. Pour beef mix into tomato and pinto beans then put in a 9 inch greased pie pan. Mix bisquick, eggs and milk and beat it real smooth. Pour on top of beef mixture. Bake pie in a large Dutch oven on coals away from main fire. When crust is golden brown, pull off of the fire.

Before you try this, make sure to read Grau's tips on Campfire baking.
