Story behind the song
Inspired by Terri Peterson's blog about the 1970 cookbook entitled "Cooking With Soup" and her delightful drawing of Meat-shell Pie, which is one of the recipes therein.
Lyrics
1
Meat-shell Pie, 10 3/4 oz condensed tomato soup,
1 1/2 lbs ground beef, 1 teaspoon salt,
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder, 6 frankfurters, split,
1/2 cup chopped onion, 2 Tablespoons butter or margarine,
Grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup shredded process cheese.
Chorus:
Behold life in a Modern Kitchen
Behold Cooking With Soup
Gimmme a piece o’ that delicious meat-shell pie
Wanna try me a slice o’ that delicious meat-shell pie

Place a double layer of foil on cookie sheet. Mix thoroughly 1/3 cup soup, beef, salt, 1 teaspoon chili powder; pat out firmly into 11-inch circle about 1/2 inch thick on foil. Turn up edges of foil to catch fat. Firmly press frankfurters, cut side up, into meat in spoke fashion.
Chorus

In saucepan, cook onion with remaining chili in butter until tender; stir in remaining soup; spread over meat. Bake at 450 degrees F. for 15 minutes. Spoon off fat. Sprinkle with cheeses; bake until melted. 6 servings.
