Awesome Beef Broccoli Pie

Preheat oven to 350.

Brown 1 lb. ground beef. Add 1/4 cup chopped onion. Drain off the fat. Stir in 2 tbsp flour, 3/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp garlic salt.

Add: 1 1/4 cup milk and 1 package 3 oz cream cheese softened.

Cook and stir until mixture has thickened. Add small amount of hot mixture to 1 beaten egg. Return to skillet, cook and stir over medium heat for a minute. Stir in 10 oz package frozen chopped drained broccoli.

Unroll 1 package crescent rolls, flour surface, place four sections of dough together, form in a 12 by 7″ triangle, seal edges and perforations together. Roll into a 12″ square to fit a 9 inch pie plate, trim.

Spoon cooled meat mixture into hell, cut into slices 4 oz monterey jack cheese, arrange on top of meat mixture. Roll out second package crescent rolls. Place on top of filling and cheee. Trim and seal edges with fork. Cut slits in the top for steam to escape. Brush top with milk.

Bake at 350 for 40 minutes. If pastry browns too fast, cover with foil the last 20 minutes. Let stand ten minutes before serving. Serves 6. This recipe can be made with no meat, just add more broccoli. Perhaps mushrooms or carrots. You could turn it into a vegetable pie if you wish. Other cheeses could be added. Hmmm.
