HAMBURGER PASTRY

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Cook and stir the meat and onion in a large skillet until the meat is brown.
• Drain off the excess fat.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining ingredients except the pie crust mix and set aside.
• Prepare the pastry as for a 2 crust pie as directed on the package.
• Divide the pastry into 8 equal parts.
• Roll each part, on a lightly floured surface, into a 7-inch circle.
• On half of the circle, spread about 1/4 cup of the meat mixture (packed) to within 1/2-inch of the edge.
• Moisten the edge of the pastry with water and fold over the meat mixture, sealing the edges with a fork.
• Place on an ungreased baking sheet and prick the tops with the fork.
• Bake 30 to 35 minutes.
• You can serve these as sandwiches or, if you prefer, place on a plate and top with gravy or sauce.
• NOTE: You can substitute 1 cup of your favorite cooked vegetable for the peas or carrots in this recipe.
