Hot Dog Pie

A co-worker who loves hot dogs shared this recipe with me. Baked in a purchased pastry shell, the pie is easy to assemble and is on the table in just 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 4 hot dogs, cut in half lengthwise and sliced
  • 1 can (16 ounces) baked beans
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons prepared mustard
  • 2 ounces process cheese (Velveeta), cubed
  • 1 frozen deep-dish pie crust (9 inches)
  • 4 slices American cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°. In a large saucepan, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Add hot dogs, beans, ketchup, brown sugar, mustard and cheese cubes. Cook and stir until cheese is melted.
  2. Meanwhile, prick crust with a fork. Bake for 10 minutes. Fill with hot beef mixture. Cut each cheese slice into four strips; make a lattice topping over pie. Bake until cheese is melted, 5-10 minutes longer.
