How to Make Beef Pie With Rice A Roni

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 1 cup of Rice-A-Roni and lightly brown, stirring frequently.
3. Add 1 pound of ground beef to the skillet and brown, breaking it up with a spoon until fully cooked. Drain off any excess grease.
4. Stir in 1 ¾ cups of boiling water.
5. Add the contents of one 6-ounce package of beef-flavored Rice-A-Roni seasoning.
6. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.
7. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
8. Remove from heat and let cool slightly (about 5-10 minutes).
9. In a separate bowl, whisk 2 large eggs until well beaten. Gently stir the eggs into the Rice-A-Roni mixture.
10. Pour the Rice-A-Roni mixture into a 9-inch pie crust.
11. Arrange 4-6 slices of cooked bacon on top of the pie.
12. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pie is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the bacon isn't browned enough, broil for the last 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
13. Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
