Description
Golden on top with a bubbling, cheesy crust and hearty, meaty filling underneath, this pie is pure comfort. The rich cheddar melts into the savory beef and onion base, while the mayo-egg-flour topping forms a soft, biscuit-like layer that holds everything together. Each bite tastes like a Southern burger in casserole form — warm, satisfying, and a little nostalgic.

Conclusion
Southern Style Cheeseburger Pie is more than just a meal — it’s a slice of home, especially for anyone who grew up with casseroles and skillet dinners. Simple to make and guaranteed to disappear fast, it’s a weeknight winner and a cozy favorite that you’ll want to keep in regular rotation.
Recommendation
Pair it with a side salad or green beans for a well-rounded plate. Leftovers reheat beautifully in the oven or microwave and make for a hearty lunch. If you’re prepping ahead, the pie can be fully assembled and refrigerated before baking.
Embracing Healthful Indulgence
While rich in flavor, this pie can be adapted to be lighter — try using lean ground turkey, reduced-fat cheese, or a whole wheat crust. The beauty of this dish is in its flexibility: you can nourish your cravings without compromising your wellness goals, making it both comforting and customizable.
