Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 Lb Lean Ground Beef
Salt & Pepper -- To Taste
4 Oz Cheddar Cheese -- Shredded,1 C
1 C Dairy Sour Cream
2/3 C Mayonnaise Or Salad Dressing
2 Tb Onion -- Finely Chopped
2 C Bisquick Baking Mix
1/2 C Water
Tomatoes -- Thinly Sliced, *
3/4 C Green Bell Pepper -- Chopped
Paprika -- Optional

* Use 2 or 3 ripe tomatoes or to taste.
Heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Cook and stir the meat in a large skillet
until brown. Drain off the excess fat. Season the meat with the salt and
pepper, then set aside. Mix the cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise and onion
and set this mixture aside. Stir the
baking mix and water together until a soft dough forms. With floured
fingers, pat the dough in a greased baking pan, 13 X 9 X 2-inches,
pressing the dough 1/2 inch up the sides of the pan. Layer the meat,
tomato slices, and green pepper onto the dough. Spoon the sour cream
mixture over the top and sprinkle with the paprika, if used. Bake
uncovered until the edges of the dough are light brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
Cool 5 minutes and then cut into squares.
