This is butchering time on many Amish homesteads. Hogs and steer are the most common animal being processed now, with meat canned and frozen for the years ahead. While scratch cooking is still the norm in most Amish kitchens, you'd be surprised how much Bisquick I see. It's sort of a step-saving guilty pleasure. Anyway, try this hearty, delicious, comforting recipe that is often served around butchering time.
HEARTY HAM-SWISS PIE
2 c. cubed ham, cooked
1½ c. grated Swiss Cheese
1/2 c. chopped onion
3/4 c. Bisquick
3 eggs
1½ c. milk
Put ham, cheese, and onion in a greased baking dish. Beat milk, eggs, and Bisquick until smooth. Pour over other ingredients. Bake at 375° F. for 30-40 minutes or until a knife inserted in center comes out clean. A delicious breakfast or brunch.
