Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

In a large skillet, crumble the ground beef over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and no longer pink. Drain off any excess grease. (10 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Stir in the tomato paste, salt, and Italian seasoning into the cooked ground beef. Reserve a small amount of both the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses for topping; stir the remaining cheeses into the ground beef mixture. Set aside. (5 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Spread the cottage cheese evenly over the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate. Spoon the ground beef mixture over the cottage cheese layer, spreading it evenly. (5 minutes)

05

Step
3 mins

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs until well combined. Add the biscuit baking mix and stir until smooth, ensuring there are no lumps. (3 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Pour the milk and biscuit mix mixture over the ground beef layer in the pie plate, ensuring it covers the entire surface. (2 minutes)

07

Step
30 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set. (30 minutes)

08

Step
5 mins

Remove from the oven and sprinkle the reserved mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses over the top of the pie. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a thin layer of ricotta cheese between the cottage cheese and ground beef layers.
Feel free to customize the cheese blend to your liking. Provolone or Monterey Jack would also work well.
If you don't have biscuit baking mix, you can make your own using a combination of flour, baking powder, salt, and shortening.
To prevent the crust from browning too quickly, you can cover the pie with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
This pie is also delicious served with a dollop of sour cream or plain yogurt.
