They were supposed to be empanadas, but I messed up the dough. I like a little semolina in my dough with the flour, but added too much, and didn’t use enough fat, (butter… it was just a lot so I used what I had). The dough came out more like pie crust, and I wasn’t wasting 1000g of flour mix so I made little pie cups. 23 little fucking pinch pots, took forever.

I had leftover taco meat in the fridge (ground bison and ground chicken), leftover spicy beans from the freezer (pinto and bacon), and mystery chili also from the freezer, I labeled it chili, but I don’t remember what protein I stuck in there but it had dark kidney beans. Warmed them all together, added a cup or more of hand shredded cheddar, and made these.

My husband said I should have added the cheese to the top, being these were supposed to be empanadas at first, I agreed, but there was a heafty amount already in the mix, I wasn’t shredding more or over doing it on the cheese. Not bad though. Leftovers for days now.
