About

There can never be enough burgers, can there? At least, that's the feeling we get while eating a particularly delicious burger; a feeling perfectly captured by the Bistro Burger Bake. Fortunately, there are plenty of burgers to go around with this casserole! Every bite has everything you could ever want in a burger: savory beef (of course), tangy and sweet condiments, juicy tomatoes, succulent bacon, and melty, sharp cheeses. It even has breadcrumbs for the toasted bun taste! Bistro Burger Bake is something you'll be happy to have on your table; no drive-thru required!
