This Mexican pie was a bit bland for my taste. I think next time I will add some more spices to the filling. The crust was also a bit too thick for my liking.

This Mexican pie was easy to make and very flavorful. I used ground turkey instead of beef and it turned out great. I also added some chopped tomatoes and jalapeños to the filling. The pie was a hit with my family and friends.
