Ingredients
1/2 lb. ground beef
1/4 c. chopped carrot
1/4 c. chopped onion
1 c. frozen diced potatoes, thawed
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/2 c. shredded cheddar cheese
1 (14.1-ounce) box refrigerated pie crust
1 egg

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F.

2. In a large skillet over high heat, cook beef, carrot, and onion 6 to 8 minutes, or until meat is browned. Drain liquid from skillet. Add potatoes, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to meat mixture; mix well and cook 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in cheese.

3. Unroll both pie crusts and using a 4-inch glass or bowl, cut each crust into 4 circles. Place a heaping tablespoon of meat mixture in center of each circle. In a small bowl, whisk egg. Brush edges of dough with egg and fold over meat mixture, forming semicircles. With a fork, press edges together firmly to seal. Place on baking sheet and brush with remaining egg.

4. Bake 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
