French-Fry Pie

I have a mad passion for French Fries..... So of course this simple family style recipe just caught my eye.  To make this "healthier" (I know, stop snickering) try using a lower fat beef or even ground turkey.
Serves 4              Hands-On Time: 15m                 Total Time: 35m

Ingredients


  • 4 cups frozen shoe-string French fries
  • 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
  • 1 14-ounce jar marinara sauce

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 425° F.
  2. Spread the fries on a baking sheet. Bake until golden, about 25 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, cook the ground beef in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until no trace of pink remains, 8 to 10 minutes. Spoon off any excess fat. Add the marinara sauce and cook until warmed through.
  4. Transfer to an 8-by-11-inch or 8-inch-square baking dish. Top with the fries. If desired, return to oven for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
