Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ðF (175ðC).
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef and chopped onion until beef is no longer pink and onion is transparent.
  3. Drain off excess fat from the skillet.
  4. Stir in the tomato sauce, drained chopped mushrooms, chopped parsley, salt, oregano, and pepper. Set aside to cool slightly.
  5. Unroll one package of crescent rolls and separate dough into triangles.
  6. In a lightly greased 9-inch pie plate, arrange the triangles with pointed ends toward the center and press edges together to form a pie shell.
  7. Separate eggs; beat together the whites from 3 eggs and the yolks from 2 eggs.
  8. Pour half of the beaten egg mixture into the bottom of the pie shell.
  9. Spoon the meat mixture into the shell; arrange American cheese slices on top.
  10. Spread the remaining beaten egg mixture over the cheese and meat.
  11. Mix the reserved egg yolk with 1 tablespoon of water and set aside for brushing.
  12. Unroll the second package of crescent rolls; place four sections of dough together to form a 12x6 inch rectangle.
  13. Press edges and perforations together, then roll dough into a 12-inch square.
  14. Brush edges of the bottom crust with the egg yolk/water mixture; place the top dough square over the filling.
  15. Trim excess dough, seal edges, and flute with a fork.
  16. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  17. Brush the top with the remaining egg yolk/water mixture.
  18. Loosely cover the pie edges with a foil strip to prevent over-browning.
  19. Bake at 350ðF (177ðC) for 20 minutes.
  20. Cover the center of the pie loosely with foil and bake for another 20 minutes.
  21. Remove from oven and let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
