Ingredients

4 slices turkey bacon
1/4 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
1 can (17 oz) sweet potatoes, drained
2 tablespoons sugar
3/4 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
2 eggs
1 crust from 1 box (14.1 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Pie Crusts (2 Count), softened as directed on box
5 thin rings green bell pepper

Steps

1

Heat oven to 375°F. In 10-inch skillet, cook bacon over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, turning once, until crisp; place on paper towels. Chop bacon; set aside. In same skillet, cook bell pepper and onion over medium heat 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until crisp-tender.
2

In medium bowl, mash sweet potatoes with fork; add sugar, seasoned salt, pepper, thyme and eggs. Beat with electric mixer on low speed 1 to 2 minutes or until well blended. Stir in chopped bacon and bell pepper mixture.
3

Remove pie crust from pouch; place flat on ungreased cookie sheet. Spread filling over crust to within 1 1/2 inches of edge. Carefully fold edge of crust up over filling, pleating crust as necessary.
4

Bake 30 minutes. Arrange bell pepper rings over filling. Bake 15 to 20 minutes longer or until crust is golden brown and center is set. Cool 5 to 10 minutes. Serve warm.

tip 1
Cutting the rings first leaves the rest of the pepper for chopping.
