Recipe Contest Winner
Been There, Didn't Have To Do That Contest
Does cooking dinner for the family day in and day out
make you shudder? As we mentioned before, it certainly
doesn't have to. When you cook with pre-prepped ingredients
(like pitted, sliced and chopped California Ripe
Olives) you save time without sacrificing flavor.
We're talking homemade meals without the hassle.

Obviously, from the dozens of fantastic entries to
our recent "Been there, didn't have to do that"
Contest, you know exactly what we're talking about!
From pastas to appetizers to after school snacks, choosing
a winner wasn't half as simple as preparing these dishes.
Finally, we tasted Vicki Frye's Simply Delicious
Hamburger Pie and knew we had to share it with the
rest of you. It's as simple as stirring together a few
basic ingredients that we all know and love: ground
beef, leftover or frozen veggies, creamy soup and California
Ripe Olives. Poured into a crust and baked for 30
minutes, familiar has never tasted so fantastic! Try
it yourself and you'll see, the hardest part of this
recipe is believing that it really isn't too good to
be true.
