SIMPLE AND SAVORY MEXICAN PIE
I had a craving for something with a Mexican flair, but didn't have many ingredients on hand. I made this up with what I had and was really pleased with the results. This is very filling and tastes great. It is mild as written, but can easily be spiced up if desired.

These taco pies are easier to handle than those regular tacos you need two hands to keep the the shells from cracking and the fillings from falling out. Pico de gallo and pepper Jack cheese round out the flavors of the taco beef. Taco hand pies are perfect for parties and on-the-go meals. Serve with picante sauce for dipping.

KUMQUAT'S SAVORY MEXICAN PIE
This was the result of using up some leftovers in my freezer and refrigerator. Didn't seem to be anything like it on Recipezaar. BF loved it and said I had to post it, so here it is! You can probably substitute the same amount of cumin for the chile and paparika, but I didn't have any at the time. I really liked the way the egg and cheese cooked together on top and it tasted really good with the bean mixture.

TAMPA CUBAN HAND PIES
The historic Cuban sandwich is Tampa's signature sandwich. Typically, the sandwich is pressed until the crusty bread is warm and the ingredients meld, but we'll compromise with a warm hand pie approach where you'll have all the traditional Cuban sandwich flavors.

HABANERO HONEY SWEET CORN CAKE
This habanero honey sweet corn cake is spicy, sweet, savory, dense, moist, and very addictive! I also had no idea what to call this, as it's not really a cake, but it's also not a pie, or a pudding, or a custard, so I ended up with "cake" since it's inspired by sweet Mexican corn cake. No matter what you call this, it's phenomenal! Garnish with fresh fruit and top with crème fraiche, sour cream, Mexican crema, or whipped cream and freshly grated lime zest.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your pie the best flavor. If possible, try to use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
- Don't Overmix the Dough: Overmixing the dough will make it tough. Mix it just until it comes together, then stop.
- Blind Bake the Crust: Blind baking the crust will help to prevent it from becoming soggy. To blind bake, preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and bake the crust for 10-12 minutes, or until it is golden brown.
- Use a Variety of Cheeses: Using a variety of cheeses will give your pie a more complex flavor. Try using a combination of cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses.
- Don't Overcook the Filling: Overcooking the filling will make it dry and tough. Cook it just until it is heated through, about 15-20 minutes.
- Let the Pie Cool Before Serving: Let the pie cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help the filling to set and the flavors to meld together.
Conclusion:
Mexican pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its flavorful filling and flaky crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a new recipe to try, give Mexican pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
