Pasties...... by Jennifer Sabin

Meat (Chicken, Beef, PorK, deer, elk, etc.) - 2 lbs. small cubed
7 -10 potatoes, cubed
7- 10 carrots, 1/2" to 1" slices
...
5-6 stalks celery, 1/2" to 1" slices
1 large onion, large diced

Spices you like, I used pepper, garlic, pinch of salt.

1-2 stickes of butter, divided by tablespoons

1. Cube meat, set aside.

2. Cube vegetables, combine in large bowl. Add spices and stir to coat veggies.

3. Make pies crust or use refigerated pies crusts. Roll out crust for a pie. Layer on 1/2 of pies crust, meat (enought for a serving), veggies ( I over fill a little), put a piece of butter on top and fold pie crust over to make a half moon shape. Pinch crust together to seal.

4. Place on cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for about and hour.

Pie Crust recipe I used:

1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup shortening (I used lard)
4-5 tsps. cold water

Mix flour and salt in mixing bowl, cut in shortening until it resembles small peas. Sprinkle in water by the tsp. and mix after adding each tsp. Makes a stiff dough. Divide in half. Makes two crusts. Can make crusts ahead and wrap in plastic wrap to keep moist.

I usually freeze some of these for easy fast meals. Not this weekend though:)
