This recipe came from 7 year old me

INGREDIENTS:

Empanadas:

A container (or roll) of pillsbury pizza dough

2 ounces of red meat (ground beef)

Pinch of salt

Pinch of pepper

A dash of chili powder

A dash of cumin

½ teaspoon of water

One egg

Sauce:

¼ Avocado

2 tablespoons small onion

2 tablespoons Green pepper

½ clove of garlic

1 tablespoons fresh Cilantro

⅛ lime squeezed

2 teaspoons white vinegar

A pinch of salt

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grab a sheet pan and spray pam onto it.

2. Pizza dough: Take out pizza dough and make it flat on the table. Use a rolling pin to flatten and thin out the pizza dough till it is around a ½ inch thick. Grab a circular cookie cutter and cut circles out of the pizza dough.

3. Cook meat: Take the meat and put it in a pan and let it cook for a few minutes until it is brown. After the meat becomes brown add in the salt, pepper, cumin, chill powder and sofrito sauce. Stir. Then add the water and stir until combined. Turn the stove back on and let the meat crisp back up.

4. Put the Empanadas together: Take a ½ tablespoon of the meat and one of the circles of dough and put the meat in the center. Pull the dough until the top edge and bottom edge line up and make a flat half of a circle. Grab a fork and indent the outer edges around the circle and then flip it over and go back over the fork indents to make the lines more defined. Take the egg and scramble it in a bowl until the whites and the yolk are combined. Take a pastry brush and brush a small amount of the egg onto the empanadas.

5. Cook the empanadas: Put the empanadas in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until they are golden brown.

6. Make the Sauce: Place all of the ingredients into a food processor or blender. Pulse until everything is combined and chopped finely and smooth as a sauce. Add a little bit of olive oil or water to make it smoother if the desired consistency is not found.
