  1. This was the first major dish I had ever made using one of my mothers old cookbooks when I was about 16; I am now 49, but this recipe always stayed with me. I think I am going to make it for my family.
     
  2. Prett good stuff!!! I followed the recipe as directed except I added a couple of cloves of minced garlic to the hamburger and onion mixture (while it was browning). I add garlic to just about everything. I liked the filling (tasted like a beanless chili with corn) very much, and the pastry was good. You could add some beans to this if you wanted to stretch it further, but as I was only feeding hubby and I, I left it as is - and there are plenty of left-overs. Made for Photo Tag, 1/15/09 - NELady.
