CONEY ISLAND CHILI PIE
1 pound ground beef
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped, 1 1/4 ounces
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
Salt, to taste
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Dash tabasco, optional
1/2 cup tomato sauce
2 eggs
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup heavy cream
8 ounce cheddar cheese, shredded
Brown the hamburger and onion; drain the fat. Stir in the seasonings and tomato sauce. Simmer on very low heat about 5-10 minutes. Pour the chili into a greased pie plate; mix in half of the cheese. Top with the remaining cheese. Beat the eggs in a medium bowl. Whisk in the mayonnaise, then the cream until smooth. Pour the custard over the cheese. Bake at 350º for 30-35 minutes until browned and the topping is set. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

This is yet another of my creations based on the Cheeseburger Quiche. Everyone liked it. Maybe I'll try adding a couple of cut up hot dogs for a Coney Island Chili Dog Pie.
