Sometimes you get get something pretty good quite by accident. Many years ago, when I was single, one night I found that I had about a half pound of left over uncooked ground beef and some left over pinto beans in the refrigerator, so I mixed a little salt & pepper with the ground beef (hamburger meat), spread it in the bottom of a little loaf pan, dumped the left over pinto beans on top of it, laid a couple of slices of cheese on top of that, and stuck it in the oven. I was actually surprised at how tasty it turned out to be.
