This savory pie is simple and can be made in large batches. I went ahead and recreated my own version of the famous ‘empanada'. You can make the beef 1-2 days before your gathering or holiday, and then assemble you pie and bake on the day you need it.It is a quick and satisfying crowd pleaser. Try it at your next gathering, you won’t be disappointed.
