Cheeseburger Pie

This one is a classic from my childhood. Mom always made it in a pie pan, but I love it so much that I calculated the volume of a pie pan and expanded the recipe to fit perfectly in a 9×13 pan. So it no longer looks like a pie but I’ll still call it that. This isn’t quite how Mom used to make it, but I think she’ll approve of my modifications.
