Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 6 to 8

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
One 10 3/4-ounce can cheddar cheese soup
3/4 cup diced dill pickle
3 tablespoons ketchup
3 1/4 cups Bisquick baking mix
1 cup milk, plus 1 to 3 tablespoons, if needed
1 cup grated extra-sharp cheddar cheese (4 ounces)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease a 9-inch baking dish.

    Step 2

    Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the beef, breaking it up with a fork, for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the meat is no longer pink. Pour off the excess drippings and use a large spoon to push the beef to the side of the pan. Add the remaining olive oil and the onion. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the onion is translucent. Push the onion to the side with the beef. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds more. Stir the ingredients together and season with the salt and pepper. Stir in the cheese soup, pickle, and ketchup. Pat the mixture into the prepared baking dish.

    Step 3

    In a bowl, combine the Bisquick and milk to form a dough. If the dough seems dry, stir in additional milk one tablespoon at a time. Spread evenly over the meat mixture. Scatter the cheddar cheese on top. Bake until the top is golden, about 15 minutes.
