Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb lean (at least 80%) ground beef
1 package (1 oz) Old El Paso™ taco seasoning mix
2/3 cup water
1 cup refrigerated hash brown potatoes
1 can (8 1/4 oz) sliced carrots, drained
1 tablespoon dried minced onion
4 1/2 cups Original Bisquick™ mix
1 cup boiling water

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Grease cookie sheet with shortening or cooking spray.
  • In 10-inch skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly cooked; drain. Stir in taco seasoning mix, 2/3 cup water, the potatoes, carrots and onion. Reduce heat to medium; cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • In medium bowl, stir Bisquick mix and boiling water until dough forms. On surface sprinkled with Bisquick mix, roll dough in Bisquick mix to coat; knead 20 times. Divide dough into 6 balls. Pat or roll each ball into 7-inch round. Place on cookie sheet.
  • Spoon about 1/2 cup beef mixture onto half of each round. Moisten edge of round with water. Fold round over beef mixture; press edge with fork to seal. Cut 3 small slits in top of each crust to allow steam to escape.
  • Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until light golden brown.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my empanadas didn't turn out as good as I hoped. The crust was too thick and the filling was bland.

I'm not a fan of spicy food, but these empanadas were not too spicy for me. They were just right.

I loved the flavor of these empanadas. The beef was perfectly seasoned and the crust was flaky and crispy.

The empanadas were a bit dry. I think I should have added more liquid to the filling.

These empanadas were easy to make and they tasted great. I used ground turkey instead of beef and they were still delicious. I will definitely be making these again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the empanadas turned out perfectly. The beef was tender and the spices were well-balanced. I served them with guacamole and salsa and they were a delicious and satisfying meal.
