Under beef+ budget cooking+ hamburger
This home favorite is a layered dinner pie made with good ground beef, sliced potatoes, sliced onions, chicken broth, seasonings and a flaky top crust. The recipe was modified from one given to my mother in the early 50’s from a lovely Scandinavian woman. It’s great for leftovers if there are any!
