I'm Daniel'swife's mom and I've been making this simple, homecooked main dish for years. You gotta love beef, cheddar and mushrooms to enjoy this, but if you do, I think you'll find it scrumptious and easy. I love the simplicity of the crust. First grease a 8x8 pan (or better yet, a cast iron skillet) with butter flavored Crisco or butter. Then gently press the dough right into the pan. No rolling, and no mess! I've used the crsut for the base of other meals. Change the toppings up and make it your own!
