Oh dear - cheeseburger pie!

[Spinoza]

This stuff is evil. Made it this evening for dinner. Oh yes, it all started out civilised enough, but then I started to panic, as I couldn't shovel it into my mouth quickly enough. A most unseemly scene ensued where I had second helpings and left my veg. All very embarassing behaviour in a grown woman.

There's some left in the fridge for my OH's lunch tomorrow, but I ate so much I can't move. I won't be making it again. :wave_cry:

 

[StephenP]

mega stuff LOL

 

[ladyfelsham]

LMAO Water oh you are a joy, that made me laugh

 

[Quak]

Cheeseburger pie is wonderful stuff - but best portioned and frozen before gluttony gets the better of you - but boy did that make me laugh!!!!

 

[jadelois]

THAT good. I shall be making one tomorrow then . . . . all be it in a tiny dish to prevent any unseemly scenes occuring

 

[Spinoza]

Don't do it Jade. Just say no.

 

[Quak]

Ahhhhhh WW - the thing is you could eat most of a full one and still not go over your carbs for the day lol - you just could not have any veggies and then Jim would be back and shout at you

 

[jadelois]

Ha ha. Thats why i'm on Atkins, i can never say no!

Taz - what a trauma!

 

[*Leah*]

Wow! Thank you LVLLT

 

[LVLLM]

no problemo x

 

[lolo]

I miss out the onions and worcester and add a pkt of discovery taco seasoning & approx 150ml of water cook until most of the water has evaporated and then put on the topping same as usual,makes it nice and spicy.(make sure its the discovery seasoning no the el paso one as this is much higher in carbs).

Ah, thanks Lorna - would be even more lovely spiced up.

I may forgive the pie and make another one, because know what? I actually didn't eat another bite the whole evening, and that's just not me! Normally I graze from teatime till bedtime.

The pie has hidden powers. Never diss the pie. Believe in the pie.

I made my first one last week and had it for dinner, breakfast and lunch. All served with a big dollop of sour cream. It's even better the next day if that's possible.
